A writer and editor for Only In Your State since 2016, Beth grew up in and currently lives outside of Pittsburgh and when she’s not writing or hanging out with her bunnies, budgies, and chinchilla, she and her daughter are out chasing waterfalls.
More than once, as we drove along a quiet country road – past homes with neatly trimmed lawns, trampolines, swimming pools, and fields with grazing cows – my daughter and I wondered aloud whether our GPS had led us astray. The road was empty, except for a car pulled to the side as the driver helped usher a lost turtle to safety. As we turned onto a dusty road that barely fit two cars, we almost missed the small sign that assured us we had nearly arrived at Buttermilk Falls in Pennsylvania.
