From Upstate New York and Niagara Falls, we headed south to Philadelphia. We spent a week there with my Dad and step-mom, camping in their backyard and seeing the sights. We spent a day in Philadelphia, visited Longwood Botanical Gardens and the Brandywine River art Museum, drove around Valley Forge, went bowling with my dad and took pilates classes at their health studio.
Leaving Pennsylvania, we headed back north, this time up the eastern part of Pennsylvania and up the Hudson Valley to Western Massachusetts to visit some Air Force buddies of Davids. We spent the weekend hanging out with them, seeing some of the small towns and other attractions and generally having a good time.
