So I took my parents for viewing & enjoying Fall Foliage (which is almost near ending now). Considering I live NY/NJ, the best bet at this time of the year seemed to be Poconos. So we decided to go to Big Pocono State Park & Jim Thorpe. The Big Pocono State Park is around 2 hrs drive from my home, the last 1/3 part of which is through mountains & stuff, which is interesting & nice. The fall colors were still there, which was kinda nice. Then we reached on top of BPSP, which is on top of a mountain, I guess Camelback Mountain. There are 4 parking spots & a cafeteria/store (which was closed). Parking Spot 1 is the best spot, right on the top & in middle. You can see the view of all sides & do hiking/trekking around it or so. Pretty nice view & fun experience. Then we drove an hour to Jim Thorpe, which a nice small little town in the valley with a river flowing & all that. You can hike & bike along the river, looking at the river on your side & mountains all around you, which had beautiful Fall colors, & the nice gorge. It's quite pretty. There are some other nice spots with great view & all that, old historical buildings, railroad & rail ride etc (which I didn't get to do/see). It was definitely a nice day with lot of nice Natural site-seeing & FUN.
