Rogers Williams Zoo in Provenience Rhode Island was founded in 1872, and is one of the oldest zoos in the nation. This Zoo is home to over 100 different species of animals and many of them are considered rare. We spent the day wandering around the zoo and around Provenience Rhode Island! Beautiful City!
Massachusetts... then to Connecticut.. Barkhamsted Connecticut to be precise...not to much going on around there so we spent our days exploring the countryside, we drove thru some awesome towns but, by far, the best was Collinsville and West Simsbury Ct, it was a beautiful small town and as we walked around we saw Farmington River Reservoir and in a small still pond, that flowed around some old building was some river otters, a mother and her baby... I was so excited to see these beautiful creatures in their natural habitat!

Next came Pennsylvania, Jane spent one whole day looking for a campsite for us over the holiday weekend, ( Labor Day) but the only one she could find was in a remote location in Shunk Pennsylvania...Buttermilk Falls...it was a beautiful campground, Pierre and I hiked to Buttermilk Falls then we walked along the river for a couple of miles..we saw quite a few falls and I saw...what I think was..a dinosaur fossil, footprint..thats my story and I'm sticking to it!
The river was beautiful and we met up with some men that were fishing for trout!
There's not too much to do in Shunk Pennsylvania..which is in Sullivan County (all 452 sq miles) is the least populated county in Pennsylvania and it only has one stop light in the whole county..so if we needed anything we ended up driving a long way for it!
We did go to a car/air show in Eagles Mere Pennsylvania, we saw some beautiful bi-planes, they took them up and did some cool tricks with them! There was a huge warehouse that had about 50 or 60 old cars!
I have to say...I was not sad to leave Shunk Pa. I was so ready to get back to civilization!
NEW JERSEY HERE WE COME!
