Raymond B. Winter State Park is located less than 30 minutes from I-80 in Pennsylvania and the campground is surprisingly quiet and shady, a wonderful place to stay for a few days. I wish more campgrounds were like this one. I visited quite a few on this particular trip which fit into similar profiles, thankfully.
Lexie and I took a short ride to Port Kent, New York, the last day we were at the Ausable Chasm Campground. Unfortunately, the ferry service between Port Kent and Burlington, Vermont, has been discontinued. As a result, the beach and ferry area have been abandoned and stood empty. This song came to mind.
This is the beginning of the Ausable Chasm on the Ausable River in New York. Looking upriver a bit, one can see Rainbow Falls in the pictures below. There's far more to this particular tourist spot, but because I had Lexie with me, I decided not to go on the trails since dogs are not allowed. There were still plenty of thrills to see on the publicly accessible portion of the property.
