We had snow yesterday and -3° Celsius and now it's +4° Celsius and feels like Spring outside.
I need a vacation soon!
I too just bought some really nice camping equipment at cut rate winter prices and can't wait to get out and hurt myself even more!
Cabin fever is setting in!

Wait till this June, and hit up the Easy Riders Rodeo in Butler at the Fairgrounds. I go there, and the one in Chillicothe'. Can find many back roads in PA, in fact, my GPS took me to one yesterday, and it was creepy, more unexpected though. It was a road, then went all dirt road for about 3/4 mile, winding left, with no guard rail on the right side, and was a drop-off, all the way down to Rt56. Also? Every single house there that had dogs, none of them were on chains, and almost ran over FOUR dogs yesterday... One caught my front left tire, I heard the dog run into it, and they followed me for about 100 yards each time. It was wet, muddy, and some ice, and was just totally unexpected that the GPS found that short-cut...

I was in the Blue Ridge,Ga mtns, going to Helen and my GPS led me onto a 5 or 6 mile long dirt road. It was fun, except I wasn't in the KJsad2.gif, but the Durango. Got a small rock chip, but it still fun. At least I avoided to switch backs. Switchbacks and high profile SUVs don't mix well, or so I've heard.

Its a 3hr drive for us.

kev, i know there are designated places to camp (both in and not in campgrounds) around Jamestown PA.. i'm just not sure where.. however pymatuning state park is very very large so i'm sure there is camping very close to the lake somewhere. i have close to 2 miles of trails in my woods if your looking to get off the road for a while...

let me know if you want more information.. i could stop by the park office sometime (it's only 2 miles from me)

Sounds like Stephen King Country!
See anyone piloting a flying lawn tractor with green light emanating from the bottom?

Yeah yeah, rub it in!
I gotta go outside now to patch my Igloo before it caves in and spoils all me Seal meat and my pet Polar bear gets grouchy 'cause I didn't give him his Kibbles and bits!

Pymatuning State Park looks like a very beautiful place.
I'd like to make it out there with my family sometime in my life time.
