Bred in Berks - Michael Constantine

 

Park at the new Angora Road trailhead. Below is a picture of the new parking area from the trail.

 

Head up the red trail going through this S curve (viewed from the top of the curve).

 

Pass a low rock wall on the left side of the trail.

 

Choose the right side trail when you come to this double red blazed tree on the left.

 

You are now approaching the T intersection at the end of this trail.

 

If you go to the right, you will see the pond below.  There is also an orienteering marker in this area.

 

However, you really want to go to the left.  The trail is marked with this metal pole above.  Walk through the pine forest till you see this stripped tree strump.

 

Notice the two trees to the right of the tree in the picture above.   When you stand in front of the tree and face the rock wall the three trees line up in a diagonal row.  Go to the second tree from the stripped tree.  Look at the left rear side of the base of this tree.

Stained Glass #1

 The Exeter Friends Meeting House.

 Plaque on the front of the graveyard wall verifies that members of the Abraham Lincoln and Daniel Boone families were buried here.  Note in the picture below that the graveyard contains no headstones.

 

 

 When you have the view above and the tree below is to your right....

 Look down to the ground on the left side of the tree for these two logs.  Box is between the two pieces.

 Signs of spring!

This is My Pennsylvania - Piper Aircraft

 

 Your journey begins in the parking lot of Pavilion #9.  The water was very low the day we placed this box.

  

Behind the restrooms, find the Lakeside Trail.

 

See....Lakeside Trail!  

 

Walk for a little while and maybe you will be lucky enough to see some whispy thistle as you pass through the meadowy clearing.

 

 

Duck under the tree and over the streambed which was dry the day we were here.

 

 

Walk up the swampy, rocky trail.  Don't worry, it doesn't last for long.

 

See, it turns into a normal woodsy trail which was still a little swampy on our visit.

 

Before you see the sixth yellow blaze, you may note the three trunk tree in the center of this picture.

 

Getting closer!

 

Voila!  A three trunk tree.

 

Look at those lovely toes.

 

Just the right place to hold a Piper Aircraft.
