I like the sound of this area. Always enjoy seeing waterfall's, and you have some pretty ones on this page. Brandywine must be a popular name for waterfall's, have seen another in a different country!

Tinker's Gorge looks really nice and as you say, quite dramatic for eastern USA -- those restored houses look good too -- the original settlers must have had so much space there -- very nice page Jim.
