October's Party ...

“October gave a party; the leaves by hundreds came –

The chestnuts, oaks and maples,

And leaves of every name.

The sunshine spread a carpet,

And everything was grand,

Miss Weather led the dancing,

Professor Wind the band …”

              ~ “October’s Party”

                       ~ George Cooper

                             ~ 1840-1927

October gives a party as the morning sun shines on an autumn in full bloom on a beautiful late October day at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Leafing Through An October Morning ...

“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”

                       ~ L.M. Montgomery

                            ~ 1874-1942

Autumn leaves paint a wonderful essence of the season on a beautiful late October morning at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Summer Morning At Rex's Bridge ...

“It was a splendid summer morning and it seemed as if nothing could go wrong.”

                  ~ John Cheever

                   ~ 1912-1982

A stunning summer morning frames the historic beauty of Rex’s Covered Bridge, North Whitehall Township, Pennsylvania in late August.

Though diminutive in size, it’s well-traveled in this picturesque rural area where it crosses the Jordan Creek.

The wooden 150-foot-long Burr Truss bridge was constructed in 1858. It has narrow horizontal siding and a gable roof. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
