The unexpected but surprisingly worth while stop at Jellystone Park of Mill Run, PA is just eight short miles from Bear Run, PA which is home to an exquisite piece of twentieth century architecture. Fallingwater was completed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1938 for Edgar J. Kaufmann Sr., a wealthy department store owner. The Smithsonian lists this residence as "one of the 28 places to visit before you die". The home harmoniously blends into its natural wooded surrounding. The property, complete with hiking trails, explodes in an array of green and pink trees. The indoor tour was sold out on Easter Sunday but I was able to take a tour of the grounds for $8. It was definitely worth the trip. Many guided whitewater rafting trips are also available in the area. A stay at Jellystone Campground, a whitewater rafting trip and a visit to Fallingwater would be a perfect weekend getaway this summer.
