Visiting Wawayanda State Park–located in Sussex County, New Jersey–almost always makes me happy (except for when I spot a bear or two).
The hiking/mountain biking trails are great and offer something for everyone regardless of ability, and the park is simply gorgeous. There are wetlands, as seen in this photo, and a lovely lake that I’ve kayaked on a few times.
For me, it’s that combination of the blue sky and greenery that brings a smile to my face each time I go there. I especially love when the sky is cull of clouds, which are reflected in the water. I enjoy the park no matter what I do (though I do tend to ride my mountain bike).
I took this photo a few days ago, on a day with perfect weather. It was in the 80s, dry and well, just wonderful. A real gift in August in New Jersey, a month that often has humid, uncomfortable days.
