Had an impromptu date night with my lovely wife tonight so we went on a nice fall hike and then enjoyed a dinner at the state park lodge.
It is an old blast furnace used for melting iron. There used to be a whole town built up around the furnace but not much remains of it now. It is pretty cool Hope Furnace - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Great pics, of you and your happy bride, wonderful fall colors, and I spied a downed tree... Guess you didn't bring a saw? Prolly woulda been frowned upon, eh?
