Sunday Drive and Colonel Denning State Park

What an incredibly gorgeous SPRING morning!  For a day that was supposed to be overcast, I received a wonderful surprise and decided to take advantage and hit the road for a morning ride..

I headed north on 233 from Newville on Doubling Gap Road.  Farms and homes, some particularly large and beautiful, dotted the landscape.  And then, out of nowhere, I saw signs for Colonel Denning State Park.  I don't think, in all my wanderings, I've been here before!

• Really nice campground.  
• No cabins.  
• Super clean, newish bathroom facilities (no wifi, though)..
• Beach and great  picnicking.
• Babbling streams.
• Waterfall beside the beach.
• Wifi near park office.
• In and surrounded by Tuscarora National Forest..

          

From there I continued along 533, passing through Landisburg, Alinda, Dromgold, and Sherman's Dale before hitting the rotary that leads to Carlisle Springs.

Blue skies, fluffy white clouds, absolutely gorgeous and perfect!!
