Summer Evening At Bogert's Bridge ...
“Simplicity
is the glory of expression.”
~ Walt Whitman
~ 1819-1892
One of the
sweet, simple joys of summer is savoring a beautiful July evening at the
historic Bogert’s Covered Bridge in Lehigh Parkway, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Bogert’s Covered Bridge spans 145
feet over the Little Lehigh Creek.
Built in 1841, its history traces
back to the mid-1700s when the Bogert family moved into a log cabin next to the
future site of the bridge. It is the oldest covered bridge in Lehigh County and
among the oldest in the country. It is open only to pedestrian and bicycle
traffic, as well as the occasional rider on horseback.
Bogert’s Covered Bridge is a wooden
Burr Truss bridge with vertical plank siding and a gable roof. It was placed on
the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.

Coca-Cola Corner ...
“Everyone
is entitled to his own nostalgia.”

Summer,
Americana and Coca-Cola go together like mom, Chevrolet and apple pie, as seen
on an early September afternoon at Chantilly Goods and Weissport Washboard in
historic Weissport, Pennsylvania.
Chantilly
Goods is an old fashion ice cream parlor, vintage soda fountain and candy
shoppe. Walking into this old time soda shoppe is like stepping back in time
into a 1920s and 1930s soda fountain.
Inside
and outside, it’s a wonderful scoop of Americana, a real vintage gem … with
sprinkles on top!
Chantilly
Goods is located near the Weissport Trailhead of the Delaware and Lehigh
National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail) and rents surreys (multiple-person
bikes) to ride on the trail.
Running
from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and
Delaware rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
