Sunday we took a trip to Bushkill Falls, PA. It's in the Pocono Mountains. My mom loves to hike, so we thought this would be great, but it was more like a touristy walk than a hike. It was only about 2 miles, and took about 2 hours (and I think it only took that long cause we stopped so much to take pictures and goof around). But the scenery was still beautiful!Monday my mom and I went to Philadelphia. We went to some of the historical sites (Liberty Bell, Independence Hall, and some other places that are near there), we went to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and of course we went to Geno's to get my mom a "Real Philly Cheese Steak" Last time I went we went to Pat's King of Steaks (right across the street from Geno's). I liked Pat's a lot more (maybe it was the Cheese-Whiz?? haha) but the guy at Geno's was really nice, he gave us pens and a sticker for my mom. Pretty funny. She enjoyed it!
My mom wanted to take it fairly easy her last day here, so we went for a drive out to Lancaster, PA, aka: Amish Country. It's so beautiful out there! And so much fun to see the way they work and live! They have lots of great shopping there, so that's what we did all day. We went first to the Amish shops, then to the outlets. It was so much fun having my mom in town, and visiting all the fun sites with her! I wish more of my family could come out and visit (there's still time guys!!! hehe)!!

I'm definitely going to reccomend to my Navy crew to do the East Coast on the reunion after this next one. It looks like you had a beautiful reunion with your mom while she was there. Those are memories no one can take back from you. I'm so proud of the both of you.
Wow those falls were so pretty. Glad your mom had a wonderful visit. When will you guys be back in Idaho? What's your roadtrip home look like?
Wow it looks like you guys are having lots of fun! When do you head back to Idaho? We will be in Virginia in 2 more weeks so maybe we can meet somewhere! We love the East Coast. There is so much to do out there! We miss you guys!
