I grew up in Broome County - just outside of Binghamton - New York. Our little community of Conklin Forks was located not twenty minutes north of the NY/PA border and nestled in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains. These are shots of the valley where I grew up - the place of my childhood. I used to run these hills and woods and creeks - the sky was the limit to the adventures I had. In the summer it was green and lush like these pictures show; in the fall brilliant colors of red, yellow, and orange painted the valley. I never took it for granted - the beauty. I used to climb up a hill near our house and just sit and soak it all in. I loved it, I miss it, I'm thankful for it.
