Living Treasures Wild Animal Park, a great family experience for all ages. We have hundreds of animals almost in touching range. A large petting area features new babies that love to be hand fed. We are adjacent to Log Cabin Lodge and Suites. Come spend the day with us.
We had a mixed group of kids ages 7,10,17, and 19. Everyone had a good time, even the teenagers. Lots of animals that we could pet and feed and interact with. Plenty of staff to answer questions and keeping an eye on things. Most of the animals we interacted with were very tame and great with the kids.

Pennsylvania's state high point, and the excitement factor probably depends on the season and the weather. I went on a cloudy, sunless day in late summer. I drove up to the parking by the observation tower, walked around for 15 minutes, took my pictures with geological survey marker (tricky to find, see below photo) and left. I went up there for the sole reason of reaching a state high point; mission accomplished. I have no idea what the views are like from the top of the observation tower; I didn't bother because of the weather. While driving up there, be careful of the all the horse manure piles in the road; the area just below Mount Davis is Amish and/or Mennonite community. And take it slow on the road. It's paved, but narrow and open for two-way traffic that can include horse drawn carriages.

Stopped by here while on an afternoon drive. Nice small county park with a neat boardwalk down and below Buttermilk Falls, an area which was once owned by Mr. (Fred) Rogers' family. There's a picnic pavilion and some hiking trails beyond the path to the falls. Probably not somewhere to spend all afternoon, but good for a nice stop.

Lovely setting for music under the canopy of trees. There is an amphitheater and an abundance of grassy areas to put down a blanket or chairs and listen to the free concerts on Friday nights. The music offered covers many genres with a different group every Friday. The venue turns into a huge, happy gathering with great music. Check out "Summer Sounds" at Saint Clair Park.
