One January Day ...

“January is here, with eyes that keenly glow,

A frost-mailed warrior striding a steady steed of snow.”

          ~ Edgar Fawcett

             ~ 1847-1904

 A light afternoon snowfall brushes the upper plateau of Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania, painting winter’s quiet beauty on the canvas of one January day.

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.”

              ~ Helen Hunt Jackson (H.H. Jackson)

                            ~ 1830-1885

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.
