Yes there will be a great spring trip for 2025!  The dates are June 6 to 8 and our destination will be the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania.  We will be staying at the Fairfield Inn in Hazleton, PA.  The rate is only 129.00 per room per night plus tax.  All rooms will have two queen size beds and continental breakfast is included.  I will be providing you a link shortly to make your reservations.  Although the hotel does not have a bar there are refrigerators in the room and there is a bar and grill adjacent to the hotel.

Attractions nearby include the town of Jim Thorpe with its wonderful architecture, great places to eat and drink and to shop.  The drive from our hotel to Jim Thorpe is approximately 25 minutes.  On any of the drives to and from any of the attractions you will see the pastoral beauty of the Lehigh Valley.

Not to be missed is the Coal Miners Tour.  The tour includes a train ride deep into one of the local coal mines and then a guided walking tour of the coal mine.  I have taken this tour and it is fascinating.  No matter the weather outside the temperature in the mine drops into the 50's so dress accordingly.  The website for the tour is No. 9 Mine and Museum.  From our hotel it is approximately a 30 minute drive and well worth it.

Also in the area is the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway.  The Railway offers a variety of train rides and tours.  Their website is  http://www.lgsry.com/
The train passes through and over some of the gorgeous scenery of the Lehigh Valley.
