Delaware Water Gap / Pocono Mountain KOA: East Stroudsburg, PA

Posted on August 26, 2017 by Cello's Corner | 2 Comments

We had a “dock diving free” weekend last August , so we had the rare opportunity to camp with family. We chose the Delaware Water Gap / Pocono Mountain KOA .

Our campsite was awesome, but there were power lines running right through the campground. It turned out not being a big deal, but definitely was something we were not used to seeing at a campground.

Margarita enjoyed walking around the campground with her cousin James. We bought James his own little “Rita leash” that we attach along with the leash I am holding so that he can feel like he is walking her.

We enjoyed the relaxing weekend with family. It was nice not to have to get up early, or have any set plans for the weekend!

Overall, despite the first impression we had with the power lines running through the campground, we had a great time playing miniature golf, taking a hay ride, exploring around the campground, and just relaxing!

Brian captured one of my most favorite shots of Margarita and me sitting at the campfire on our campsite:

Rita, you are the mac to my cheese!

Ok, so we are a few days late celebrating International Friendship Day (8/6), but in honor of the wonderful friends in our lives, Margarita and I ran the Virtual Run Events Friends Forever 5k.

It certainly wasn’t our fastest race, (at least it was faster than our first 5k together!) but it was time well spent together – and for a good cause! 15% of each registration for this race is donated to Soles4Souls. Since 2006, Soles4Souls has collected and distributed 26 million pairs of shoes to those in need in 127 countries around the world and all 50 states in the U.S!!
RACE

Rita’s total race miles: 12.45 miles

Who’s the mac to YOUR cheese?!

Around the campground…

We had a relaxing weekend of walking, hanging out at our campsite, and playing board games.

We were lucky enough to enjoy our Anniversary dinner outside:

This was one of our rare camping trips where we didn’t have a dock diving event. It was nice to relax, and not have anywhere to go!
