RidgeRacer Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 Jim Thorpe, Franklin Township, Beltzville etc are quickly becoming a bedroom community. More and more people who commute to the LV are buying / building nice homes. Home values are a lot higher than they once were. The whole controversy over Jim Thorpe's remains is a pretty hot topic.

indiggio Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 The Asa Packed mansion is also a good place to visit it Jim Thorpe. He was a multi millionaire businessman in the 1800s and founded Lehigh University. I was there but it was so long ago that I may have to go there again. Maybe on a date as visits to the fun rink don't always roll smoothly pun definitely intended I like the old jail myself... Quote
Barb Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 Is this right near boulder? Started the hike at NCAR (National Center for Atmospheric Research) in south Boulder. Hiked the Mesa trail to Chautauqua, also in Boulder. The west side of town has a great network of trails. Quote

Barb Posted November 8, 2014 Report Posted November 8, 2014 Thought I would take advantage of the beautiful close to full moon tonight and go for a hike. I was just starting to wonder how I was the only one on the trail since it was so warm and inviting out. Then I spotted another headlamp in the trail below me but quickly realized it wasn't a headlamp; they were eyes. A small bear but I thought mama bear may be nearby so I got out of there looking behind me and freaking myself out the entire way down. 6 Quote
Justo8484 Posted November 10, 2014 Report Posted November 10, 2014 Went for a hike in Wissahickon this afternoon. It was interesting hiking a lot of the same trails I normally bike and get a different perspective. Also hiked some trails I've never been on before which was cool. We got a bit of a late start and just made it back to the car before it was totally dark. We also found this weird looking tree stump that looks like a deer head! 2 Quote
GSSucks Posted November 10, 2014 Report Posted November 10, 2014 Got in a quick 60 miles on Saturday on the road bike, quite a chilly start at around 34 degrees but it warmed up quick. 6 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 That is beautiful. I can't wait to walk around there in a banana hammock Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 Indoor waterpark and hotel. The first of its kind in the area Quote
poconoceancity Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 How bad will the traffic be after this is done? Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 I don't see traffic being that bad. It's only a couple miles from I-80 and camelback already gets 10,000 plus people on busy days. Could add an extra 500 cars when at full capacity. Doesn't really matter I don't think any PASRs frequent Camelback anymore. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 I doubt the water park will be as good as wild water kingdom. Quote
