“Happy
trails to you, until we meet again.
Happy
trails to you, keep smilin’ until then.
Who
cares about the clouds when we’re together?
Just
sing a song and bring the sunny weather.
Happy
trails to you, ‘till we meet again.
Some
trails are happy ones,
Others
are blue.
It’s
the way you ride the trail that counts,
Here’s
a happy one for you.
Happy
trails to you, until we meet again.
Happy
trails to you, keep smilin’ until then.
Who
cares about the clouds when we’re together?
Just
sing a song and bring the sunny weather.
Happy
trails to you, till me meet again.”

It’s
a tale – or perhaps tail – of the trail as this cute little dog enjoys autumn
along the Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail)
riding on this man’s back as he pedals his bicycle through a beautiful October
afternoon at Lehigh Gap.
In the shadow of the Kittatinny Ridge, also called Blue Mountain, the Lehigh
Gap in Slatington, Pennsylvania, is a crossroads where the Lehigh Gap Nature
Center’s trails connect two historic trails – the Appalachian Trail and the
D&L Trail.
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.
