Photos from June 2013 I was told of a rock not too far from me that resembled a Native American face, appropriately named Profile Rock. The stone face is found on Route 42 between Catawissa and Bloomsburg. Unfortunately, it’s also located right at a bend in the road,...
Photos taken October 2011 Another discovery through geocaching. We stopped here on the way home from our Quebec/New York trip. This may look like a gas station from the 1950’s, but this is really the side yard of someone’s home in Hallstead. Vintage soda machines, signs, and gas...
