Ricketts Glen : Ricketts Glen is a Pennsylvania State Park about 30 minutes north of Orangeville where my Mom lives. We were there August 27, 2009 and heard that it had been a dry year. Locals told us that at times the quiet streams and gentle falls turn into raging torrents. It's a great place to visit if you can handle the difficult trail. I almost didn't. I twisted my knee about a a quarter to a third of the way in. I fashioned a knee brace out of my leather belt and used a hefty walking stick my sister found. I wasn't sure I'd make it. I obviously did (it might have been contemplating the cost of a rescue) and in spite of the rather serious discomfort, it was worth it to get some of these photos. How I suffer for my art!
