Michigan is a beautiful state with the now all familiar country roads and all that is associated with them; farms, live stock and beautiful scenery. I stopped at Yankee Springs for a few days of relaxation and discovery of the surrounding area.Next planned stop was to Findley State Park in Ohio. This stop was planned as it was the closest camping place to Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Ohio. No camping in this National Park. Cuyahoga is the most unsual National Park I have so far visited. The park is more like a recreational area that winds its way from Garfield Heights on the North to South of Akron on the South. There are farms, towns, a continous biking trail, hiking, boating,a train, and wild life all along the Valley. You don't actually have an entrance to the park so you are not really sure when you arrive. It took a little getting used to the idea that I was in a National Park while I was in the town of Peninsula, where I was to take the scenic train ride along the Cuyahoga Valley to Akron and back. I enjoyed three days at Findley State Park in Ohio and then proceeded on to Great Smoky Mountain National Park in North Carolina & Tennessee only to stop for a few nights at Warriors Path State Park in Tennessee, where I am now.
Next post and probably my final post will be from Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Stay tuned. Enjoy a few photos. TC..
