my family gathered this thanksgiving in clarendon, pa - at my brother and sister in-law's house, which happens to be in the state park he manages. aside from the 13 hour drive both ways, it was a great trip. i was introduced to my niece brenna, got to play in 15" of snow, hang out with the family, see a few friends and eat until i couldn't eat anymore.
these are all images from chapman state park, which doubles as my brother's backyard.
