Our mountain house is on the Upper Delaware River and we spend many afternoons and evenings sitting on its banks and kayaking on part of its length. It's incredibly beautiful with a tremendous variety of wildlife, birds and fish. The water is fresh and clean and provides part of New York City's water supply.
Who in their right mind would want to damage such a place?!
