Pocono Mountains aka: The Poconos

I had my first real experience with a bond of sisterhood.

when i was around 8-9 yrs old, me and my family spent a week in the poconos… we stayed at a resort where they had tennis courts, a pool, horse back riding etc… very nice place with nice scenery…

I went to Pen state in June-July. I went for summer vacation to visit my grandparents. I actually almost moved there. The mountains are gorgeous and it’s very peaceful and quiet.

i spent half of my life living in the poconos and the other half living in new york city. what a contrasting experience! i didn’t care for PA too much, but it DOES GROW ON YOU. things i’ve heard from plenty of people. its pretty in all the seasons. but i’ve had a hard time finding things to do. if you are into sports and nature, its great cuz of the winter sports and the fields for high school soccer and football, hunting… things like that. but i’m not really into any of that. but i sure do like to climb a nice tree and read a book, or listen to the birds and watch ducks in the little ponds and lakes and the deer…. everywhere.

peaceful and beautiful during the summer. it looks pretty during the winter too, but i lived here half my life and got tired of snow, cold and too many cloudy days. tis why i moved to FL.
