"Roaring dreams take place in a
perfectly silent mind.
Now that we know this,
throw the raft away."
~ Jack Kerouac
~ 1922-1969
Whether your mind is harkening back to bygone Aprils or racing
with hopes for the future, April on the Delaware River is a beautiful place to
dream.
Whether you’re cruising in a speedboat or fishing – with your
dog as first mate – on a small craft shaded by a green umbrella, sailing the
river that straddles New Jersey and Pennsylvania offers a glorious vista.
It’s also a spectacular view from the Riverton-Belvidere Toll
Supported Bridge, my vantage point when capturing this shot on a day teeming
with the best of spring’s sun and warmth.
The bridge, which opened in 1904, links Belvidere, New Jersey
and Riverton, Pennsylvania.
Belvidere, one of my very favorite places, is a charming
Victorian town located on the banks of the Pequest and Delaware Rivers.
