Love and Nature in the Pocono’s (My Weekend Getaway)

Over the past weekend my wife and I took a little 25th Anniversary trip to the Pocono's, and I tell you it's fun to get back to nature.

Sometimes you get so involved in your daily routine, you know the day to day stuff,  that you forget about the beauty that's all around you. So this past weekend my wife and I took a trip to the Pocono's to get away and to get back to nature.

Since we've been going to the Pocono's since we first met back in the late 80's...(such a Long Island thing to do), and have been back there about a half dozen times since, we figured it would be the perfect weekend getaway for our 25th Anniversary. Just look at the view from our room. (above)

Everyone's happy to see you there. This guy greeted us on the deck as soon as we got to our room...I guess he or she was part of the official welcome wagon, or maybe just wanted to see what was for dinner.

Then there's also the activities, check out my mad archery skills.

And almost around every corner there's breath taking scenery like Raymondskills Falls.

And no trip is complete without some good food. Yobo in Newburgh, N.Y. has always been a favorite of our's. We make it a point to stop there every time we head back to Connecticut.

So if daily life is getting you a little stressed, jump in the car and in about 2 hours experience a little slice of paradise. Your body and mind will thank you.
