Anyone near the park that can tell me things to do nearby?  
The wife and I have been there a few years now and will be back again in June.

I would love to do some shooting, but she would be bored as hell so that is out.

Each year, we go horseback riding, hiking and take the dogs swimming, but I would like something else to do.
We eliminate technology for the time we are there just to get away from it all.

Thanks in advance,

Bill

I guess I should have stated the things we have done.

Trolly museum is small, and not worth a trip each year.

Steamtown IS definitely worth the trip each year because we usually take an excursion.

Coal mine tour we did last year, and was great.

Everhart Museum is a new idea, and we will go there this year.

New Foundland Hotel, we have eaten at every year on our anniversary.

We usually hike so much my wife, both dogs and I all lose weight.

Are there any caves in the area?  Something different is what we are looking for.

How about a range to drop some pistol lead?  I have seen the one on route 6, but I think that one states PA residents only.

We hike most trails in Promised Land and the surrounding Delaware State Forest.

Old Forge We cook or pack meals each day, so Pizza is not needed.
Sunset Hill Shooting Range They are more expensive than NY ranges.  May NOT go shooting on the trip.

Blue Mountain Resort Adventures Not looking for a resort, but we will check this one out.

Camelback Mountain Coaster Coaster?  Maybe the wife will go for this?

And my favorite guide to everything else    This Week in the Poconos Good resource for local information.  Thank you!
