Ohhh just a small suggestion for plotting your trip out...
Google Earth
It is such an insanely amazing program.

I live in PA, but am moving out of here at the end of september. Do you have any information as to where in Pa can I chcek out the fall colors during late september?

Color change isn't an exact science and depends on lots of factors. In PA (just moved from there was in the Scranton area for 8 years) the change is about 2 weeks but, once a big wind comes thru that can dramatically change it. On the east side of the state virtually everywhere ... Around Mifflinburg you get a nice combination of color change and Amish scenes. Further east you have lots of state parks, all the way to the Delaware Water Gap which has not only color change but, the river. Outside of Scranton there is a nice little private community called Eagle Rock the advantages here are it isn't crowded and the hotel costs for leaf peepers isn't quite as severe. Anywhere along the Poconos .. Mt. Pocono etc. you will see big spikes in hotel costs ... not as bad as Maine and NE but, still significant. You can drive up 81N towards NY State pick any little state road and you will find lots of good shooting. Season isn't long but, this is a pretty inexpensive way to get practise. Don't forget your Enhancing filter. |

kawhona had a suggestion I was about to make: Start in Scranton and drive North on 81 until you start to see the colors change. Route 11 parallels 81--so you can get off and continue your northern trek through quaint towns and countryside....all the way to Canada if I recall correctly.
If you decide to do that, then send me a PM--I'm on the route.
(And I'm a lot nicer in person than in the forums, too. =) ) |

That's what we're known for! Just look at the flag:

I agree anywhere in Ontario! |
The Gatineau Hills near Ottawa with their log homes and covered bridges are a nice sight to behold also.
