On our preparation day this week four of the young Sister missionaries asked if we and the Cattani's would take them down to Watkins Glen. None of us had been there before, but had heard that it was a good outing. So off we went -- south to Seneca Lake, it was about a 2 hour drive. We had been over on the east side of the Lake where the Girl's Camp is located, but this was over on the west side of the Lake. The photo above shows a picture of what the landscape looked like on our way down to Watkins Glen.
Here we are at the beginning of our adventure: Elder & Sister Cattani, Sister Silva, Sister Nielsen, Sister Saxon and Sister Wells. And us: Elder & Sister Hamblin.
This is what we faced -- a long climb up, up, and up -- 800 stairs to the top of the gorge! But LOTS of beautiful waterfalls, pools, and gushing water awaited us. It was a beautiful and amazing place and we had a fun, fun time.

Good job! Even videos...I was impressed!
Sounds like a great P-Day activity. I am encouraged to try and add a video to my blog. I enjoy reading about your experiences as missionaries. We visited these sites several years ago, I was amazed to travel the countryside and then come upon a full sized chapel in the middle of "nowhere", but what a beautiful setting. I loved the statuary of the visitation of Peter, James and John to Joseph that is /was displayed there, is it still there? Keep up the good work. :o)
