Silence Is Golden ...


"Silence is golden, but my eyes still see ..."
                                ~ "Silence Is Golden"
                                          ~ The Four Seasons
                                                                      1964

A man takes in the silent beauty of a summer
golden hour at Leaser Lake, New Tripoli, Pennsylvania. 
The lake's namesake is Frederick Leaser, who in
September 1777 with his farm team hauled
The Liberty Bell from Philadelphia to Allentown where it was concealed 
in Zion Reformed Church. His homestead is located one mile
to the north of the lake.

Glittering ...


 "All that glitters is gold."

 
All that glitters is gold in the night sky during the
2014 Fourth of July fireworks set off from
J. Birney Crum Stadium, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Ah, to have fireworks every day!

Winter Gold

"Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky."
                                                                     ~ Rabindranath Tagore
