Having fun at the Quechee Gorge

[Jeremy] On the advice of a friend, we took a trip to the one of the closest state parks to our little home in West Lebanon... Quechee State Park. The main attraction of Quechee State Park is a rather large gorge in which there is a small but robust little river. After a 15 min hike down the length of the gorge, you come to a beautiful section of the gorge where you can easily climb on to rocks in the river. In this section, the rocks are big and randomly placed and create many little pools and tiny waterfalls. We weren't sure if Ethan would like it at first, but once he started exploring, he kept at it for over an hour. Everyone had gone home before we started to make our way back to the shore. Below is a video of Ethan doing some exploring with his papa.



NOTE: After a visit back to PA for a wedding a few weeks ago, I found a few of my old toddler shirts that my mom had saved (and that I had packed away when I was moving out of my childhood home in Homer City, PA). Two of the three shirts were Penn State shirts... Ethan has been wearing them a lot this summer -- they have been washed so many times that they are SUPER soft. Anyway, if you look closely, you can see that Ethan is wearing one of them in this video.
