Any one from PA and what area

I live in the Poconos and I am surrounded by beautiful waterfall hikes and views and I'm trying to get in shape to hike the trails. I used to live in a nice little town where I could walk every where...Now Im in the woods and afraid or walking around.

    You do live in paradise! I was in the Scranton area for 5 years. I loved it! The one problem I had was with food. People, in Scranton didn't seem to know what a vegetable was! Now, I'm back in California, where we have tons of fresh veggies, but nowhere to hike! :laugh: Don't be afraid of walking in the woods! Do you have a dog? That would help!

    Hi!! I'm in the Poconos, born here and never left. I'm used to the woods by now and haven't really been out in them in a while. Devil's Hole in Paradise is a REALLY nice place to walk/hike around, and it's mostly trails.

    Wow, you have done phenomenal! The Skook is not the easiest place to get healthy, too many distractions!!!

    I should know, I live in Texas now, but was born and raised in Frackville--!!
