Fallingwater and Whitewater Rafting for C&O Canal Trek

"The C&O Canal Trekkers have had a busy few days! On Wednesday we arrived in Ohiopyle, PA and had a great time whitewater rafting. After that we spent some quality time in the local laundromat drying everything that we left outside in our bikes during a rain shower while we were rafting. Then on Thursday we peddled up a humongous hill to Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater where we gazed at the amazing architecture and the expensive artwork. Today (Friday) we sent postcards that we found at a grocery store and we biked 30 miles to a campground in Rockwood, PA. Tomorrow we are looking forward to peddling to Cumberland, MD where we will leave the Great Allegheny Passage Trail and join the C&O Canal Path." -- Ben, Teen Trekker
