Walkin' In A Winter Wonderland ...

“Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin’?

In the lane snow is glistenin’

A beautiful sight

We’re happy tonight

Walkin’ in a winter wonderland …”

        ~ “Winter Wonderland”

          ~ music by Felix Bernard, lyrics by

                   Richard B. Smith

               ~ 1934

“Winter Wonderland” is a winter song, popularly regarded as a Christmas song. Through the decades it has been recorded by over 200 different artists.

 

Two men walk through a winter wonderland a fresh February snowfall has created on my favorite path at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Strollin' On An April Afternoon ...

“Spring won’t let me stay in this house any longer! I must get out and breathe the air deeply again.”

~ Gustav Mahler

~ 1860-1911

~ Austro-Bohemian Romantic composer

This late April afternoon sings of spring as a girl and her dog stroll down a path at Lehigh Parkway, Allentown, Pennsylvania, about to walk under the Interstate 78 bridge that drapes above the peaceful parkway in this HDR image.

The busy interstate that drives above the bucolic setting is an interesting juxtaposition, but the bridge does nothing to detract from the serene paths, natural scenery and the Little Lehigh Creek, seen at right, that flows through the length of the parkway.

Interstate 78 is an east-west highway running 144 miles from northeast of Harrisburg through Allentown in Pennsylvania, and western and northern New Jersey to the Holland Tunnel and Lower Manhattan in New York City.
