Photography Contest Prize



This spring, I entered a photo contest in "Today and Tomorrow" a local magazine..  I didn't expect to win but much to my surprise I won first place!  The picture I entered was featured as the magazine's cover photo for the summer issue and I won a three night stay at Wild Asaph Cabin up in Wellsboro, PA.

Each entree could have up to three photos taken somewhere in Pennsylvania. 
Out of the three pictures I sent in this is not the one I thought would win!
 I was pleasantly surprised!  :)
 

Wellsboro is a very cute little town.  Mommy thought these gas laterns were really neat.
 

 
We arrived at the cabin on Thursday afternoon and went for a little hike on the mountain.
 


 
Friday morning we went to the Leonard Harrison State Park.
It was foggy and rainy so in the afternoon we went back to the cabin and played games.





 
We saw quite a few deer!
 

Saturday morning we went to Colton Point State Park.


Hope, Daddy, Joshua, and I rode our bikes down the mountain for three miles!  It was a lot of fun!  Much better than going UP hill!  :)
 

We met up with the rest of our crew at the Darling Run Access Area where we got on the Pine Creek Rail Trail.
 
 

 




We rode about 8 miles down the trail and had a picnic.
Joshua and Lillia decided to try and catch a crayfish.
 


 Hopie caught one too!
 
 

 
On our way back we stopped at the Turkey Trails.
 





 



 Uh oh!  Elainah fell in!  :-/
 

 We got to see a bald eagle!!!  That was a highlight of our trip!
