Those mountains down in your area are some of the most beautiful in the world. There's a pure, untouched, lush quality to the area we live in that you just can't find anywhere else. I've traveled all over this country by car and by foot and I'm convinced of that fact. Just a couple weeks ago I watched huge black bear (I'd guess about 400 lbs.) a 100 yards out in the field walk parallel to the road for about 30 minutes. It was like a circus attraction. Cars were pulling off and I was passing my binoculars around. The bear acted as though he didn't have a care in the world. Every once in a while he'd turn his head and look as if he was wondering what all the commotion was. By the way, my sister lived in Trout Run for several years. |

I agree about the mountains. They really cool things off. When I go running, one of the roads I take has Lycoming Creek on one side and a mountain on the other with lots of trees. The temp is probaly 5 degrees cooler on that one road than the rest of the town. One of my favorite things to do on a sunny mild day is to hike up a mountain up here. I also like to go to Rock Run or Rickett's Glen for a day. It is beautiful here.

I also do a good bit of hiking and running. Something about nature that really helps keep my feet on the ground. |

I actually try not to go to Rock Run unless it's a REALLY hot day. It's so much cooler there. I've never actually gotten in that water, but from stepping in it, I can tell there would be significant shrinkage. Never been to the Grand Canyon, but everyone tells me I should.

Depends on what u want.
Cedar Point = Coasters. Do you love Coasters? Lots of Coasters? Universal = Family atmosphere. Big budget shows and tons of dark rides. No coasters. The also have Universal Islands of Adventure right next door.

Cedar point for the roller coasters. Millenium Force is amazing. So is that one that you stand up for the ride. Now, how could they not include Islands of Adventure? It has really great rides and it's so much cheaper to go to Universal/Islands of Adventure than to go to Disney. Oh, and one of the classics is Knoebels. Great memories there.

Where's Universal studios on the list? Thats my favorite. No coasters? The Hulk? Dueling Dragons? Mummy? Some of the best. We went on a 11 day trip to Orlando one year. Spent a day a each of the 4 parks in Disney. Spent a day a each of the 4 parks in Universal and another day at Sea World. That was way too much.

This list is still crap 4 years later.
I can't imagine any Knott's Camp Snoopy could be much different from the original one, and that one is boring for anyone under 60. Or anyone that doesn't like jam.

18 years growing up in Southern California, and it took me until I was 28 to go on every ride in one day.
