OLD CITY FALLS






I LOVE OLD CITY FALLS, WHEN MY PARENTS WERE ALIVE WE OWNED A CAMP AND LAND ON OLD CITY FALLS ROAD, NOW MY BROTHER OWN:S THE PROPERTY, IT IS STILL PICTURESQUE, WITH A BABBLING BROOK AND LOTS OF HARDWOOD TREES AND APPLE TREES, AND JUST UP ABOVE OUR OLD CAMP IS THE SITE CALLED OLD CITY FALLS< IT IS PROTECTED LAND< THAT YOU CAN VISIT< COOK OUT< AND VISIT< SWIM . WHEN I WAS YOUNG 5 YEARS< OLD I USE TO TRAVEL THE ENTIRE OLD CITY BROOK< UP TO THE FALLS< AND I LEARNED HOW TO SWIM THERE. WE WOULD SLIDE DOWN THE MOSS COVERED ROCKS INTO A DEEP POOL, WE ALSO USED TO FISH THE BROOK FOR BROOK TROUT!! I NOTICED THIS TRIP TO THE FALLS< THE WATER WAS MUCH LOWER, THAN USUAL,  THE OLD T-PEE"S WERE GONE AND THE OLD SHED WITH BENCHES LINED WITH STRAW WAS REPLACED BY A NEW SHED< AND STONE HEARTH. (EVEN THOUGH THE OLD THINGS WERE GONE< MY FOND MEMORIES OF OLD CITY FALLS LIVE ON)
