This is a very old part of the country, rich in history. You see it in the architecture; you hear it in the people you stop and talk with; you feel it in the trees. The mid-Atlantic states are living American history. Here you will find the old, the new, and, of course, the beautiful natural areas that haven’t changed and one hopes never will. There is beauty all over this area. Lakes, mountains, and rivers are everywhere.
