The Quemahoning Dam was built beginning in 1911 to create a reservoir of water to supply the Cambria Iron Works in Johnstown in the years following the great flood. In recent years the area has been purchased by two local counties and besides supplying water to local communities and industry the agency that oversees it has opened it up for recreation. The campground is probably less than a decade old. We’ve got a delightful shaded RV site with electric just a short walk from the lake.
A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
A visit to the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden gave us insight into the evolution and role of public transportation in the creation of London as a great metropolitan area.
Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
