Dingman's Falls? What a small world.
When I was a camper, and then a counselor at a Y camp, we used to go to Dingman's all of the time. There was nothing there - just primitive camping (no campground, no outhouse, just meadow and woods) and the falls.
I still have the scar on my leg from one adventure. When I was a junior counselor, I was showing the kids how, when climbing the falls, you must always watch where you put your hands because of snakes. Just as I was about to put my hand on a ledge, I spotted the rattlesnake sunning itself, whipped my hand back, and fell about 15 feet.
What's there now? I don't suppose that they let anyone climb the falls anymore. That was in the 60's.
If you can arrange to see Chanticleer while you're in the Longwood area, it's well worth it.

Been in the northern part of PA for awhile  traveling down Rt 6 hiking and
site seeing.  Earlier today moved south.  Stopped at the dingman falls and
currently next to longwood gardens which I plan on touring tomorrow.. After that will tour the dupont gardens and homes. Then off to Lancaster and then south to the blue ridge parkway areas.. I want to do one of those zip line 
things.
No definate plans, just kinda going where ever. Although in a week I need to 
be back in Illinois unfortuately.

Got a suggestions of where I need to go?
