As I started my way westward, I told myself not to get too caught up in "just getting there". That's the whole point of travel, isn't it? To enjoy the little things to do and see on the way to wherever we're going (so many life lessons hidden in there- look out). Well, attempting to live by my own advice, I stopped by a state park I had barely even heard of before- Letchworth State Park. Totally. Worth it.
THE DEETS
Letchworth State Park is in Upstate new York, about an hour and change south of Rochester. So for those from NYC, it may a well be Washington State, I know, I know. Well, I wouldn't come from Georgia just to go to this park, but if you live in Upstate NY, it is a MUST do. It's $8 admission (unless nobody is in the booth- this seems to occur after 6pm or so- wink, wink). The driving is straight forward, with viewpoint pull-off spots along the way. Coming from the north side of the park, your views will become more and more dramatic before landing at the falls. Come peak leaf season, this place is where I want to be.
