“But memory is an autumn leaf that murmurs a while in the wind and then is heard no more.”
~ Khalil Gibran
~ 1883 ~ 1931
The reflection of autumn leaves colorfully cascades across the Pequest River as it flows through the middle of town in Belvidere, New Jersey, a Delaware River Town, on a perfect Indian Summer afternoon in early November.
The Pequest ~ Native American for “open land” ~ is a tributary of the Delaware River. It tumbles down to Belvidere in a series of falls, where it meets the Delaware.
Belvidere, one of my very favorite places, is a charming, Victorian town located on the banks of the Pequest and Delaware Rivers.
