The Swirl Of It All ...

“By all these lovely tokens

September days are here,

With summer’s best of weather

And autumn’s best of cheer.”

Autumn leaves, the late afternoon September sunlight and silky long exposure waters form a fall mosaic in the swirl of it all along the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail), Weissport, Pennsylvania, where the trail is positioned between the Lehigh River and Lehigh Canal.

Running from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and Delaware Rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
