A cool piano mural jazzes up the side of the future 1812 Piano Lounge, slated to open in spring 2025 at 1812 West Allen Street, Allentown, Pennsylvania, in the vicinity of the West End Theatre District. I shot this on a mid-October evening in 2024.
The mural is the work of local artist Lauren Kuhn.
“… I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief …
For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.”

~ American novelist, poet, environmental activist, cultural critic & farmer
I came into the peace of wild things when I spotted two whitetail deer button bucks, at right, crossing the Saucon Creek, tinged with the gold of a looming late October sunset, as other deer soak in the beauty of autumn along the Saucon Rail Trail, Hellertown, Pennsylvania.
