Stepping Stones Falls – Mini-Stop
Stepping Stones Falls is an excellent “Mini-Stop.” I like these mini-stops because they are a great way to stretch out, see something new, and break up a long drive. At this mini-stop, there is a dam with artistic and architectural value. Unlike most dames, this…
Marshall M. Fredericks Sculpture Museum
We love to travel, but travel can get expensive with admission costs, hotels, gas, food, etc. So when I find a free place to go, it tops the list. And when that free site is informative, educational and connects to so many other places we…
