“Silently, like thoughts that come
and go,
The snowflakes fall, each one a
gem.”

It’s a quintessential snow day as
snowflakes tumble around the Springhouse at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown,
Pennsylvania.
I shot this scene brimming with
winter’s quiet beauty during a light January snowfall.
The log cabin was part of
Springhouse, the summer home of General Harry C. Trexler (1854-1933), an
American industrialist who built a business empire in Allentown. The park is
his namesake.
