We left Bethesda on June 23 and headed north toward Ithaca. We let Google guide us on an unexpectedly beautiful journey. For much of our time in Pennsylvania, we followed route 15 along the Susquehanna River. It was sunny, warm, and breezy. Idyllic.<\/p>\n

We didn’t have a planned lunch-stop, and began hunting for a good spot in the early afternoon. Usually we just zoom in to our digital map and look for green blotches that indicate parks (hopefully with playgrounds). This time, however, we were stymied with very little green during our lunch window. As we were considering our options, we almost missed a tiny little rest area sandwiched between the road and the river (McKee’s Half Falls Rest Area<\/a>, in case anyone is taking notes). It was a jewel of a stop, with picnic tables perched on a tree-lined bluff over some rapids. There were rocks to climb on, narrow beaches to explore, and stunning views.<\/p>\n
