We tried out an old favorite hike this weekend...Mt. Falcon Park. It has the remains of an old (early 1900's) 'castle'...a stone mansion built on the 4000 acre estate of William someone-or-other which unfortunately burned down a few years after he built it. Then the depression came and he ran out of money to rebuild. Poor guy!
I remember hiking there with Girl Scouts and finding pieces of ceramic pottery around the grounds...and the girls were lucky enough to find a few pieces themselves. I'm sure there is a park ranger in charge of planting broken ceramic pieces for people to find but it's fun nontheless! It was a very misty morning so the fog moved in and out of the castle walls...and yes...that is my ghost meter in Emma's hand!!! You never know when you might need it!!
