Spring's Picture Window ...
“To me, every hour of the day and
night is an unspeakably perfect miracle.”
~ Walt Whitman
~ 1819-1892
A window
in the historic Bogert’s Covered Bridge in Lehigh Parkway, Allentown,
Pennsylvania, perfectly frames the sweetness of spring on a beautiful May
evening as the Little Lehigh Creek flows gently beneath the bridge.
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.

Cotton Candy On The Kittatinny ...
“The
sky broke like an egg into full sunset and the water caught fire.”
~ Pamela Hansford Johnson
~ 1912-1981
The
cotton candy, bubblegum pink of a winter sunset brushes the snow sugared Kittatinny
Ridge, also called Blue Mountain, and reflects in the Lehigh River on a January
evening along the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail) at Lehigh
Gap.
The
Appalachian Trail, a foot path, follows the ridge on both sides of the Lehigh
Gap, running 1,245 miles south to Georgia and 930 miles north to Maine. Running
from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and
Delaware rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
