Evening Falls ...


“Give light, and the darkness will disappear of itself.”
           ~ Desiderius Erasmus

The waters of the Monocacy Creek spill into light as they cascade over the Monocacy Falls as evening falls in late November at Monocacy Park, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

Magnolia's Evening Song ...


“For the winter is passed. The rain is over and gone. The flowers are springing up. And the time of the singing of the birds has come.”
                 ~ Song of Solomon 2: 11-12
The first breaking bud of the season on my favorite pink magnolia tree shows off its beauty on an early April evening at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Mountain Moonshine ...



“We ran as if to meet the moon.”
              ~ Robert Frost
                       ~ 1874-1963
 The autumn moon seems to meet the mountain as it rises to shine over the Kittatinny Ridge, also called Blue Mountain, along the Delaware and Lehigh Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail) at Lehigh Gap on a late November evening.

In the shadow of the Kittatinny Ridge, the Lehigh Gap in Slatington, Pennsylvania, is a crossroads where the Lehigh Gap Nature Center’s trails connect two historic trails – the Appalachian Trail and the D&L Trail. 

The Appalachian Trail, a foot path, follows the ridge on both sides of the Lehigh Gap, running 1,245 miles south to Georgia and 930 miles north to Maine. Running from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and Delaware rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
