The cold winter waters of the Monocacy Creek spill over Monocacy Falls in a cascading dance on a beautiful February afternoon at Monocacy Park, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, three days after the region was blanketed with 27.3 inches of snow.

Bathed in the late afternoon sun of a November day, a white-tailed deer fawn sweetly nuzzles its mama doe along the Saucon Rail Trail, Hellertown, Pennsylvania.

I spotted this painted rock in the shape of a heart along the Saucon Rail Trail, Hellertown, Pennsylvania, in late January ~ the heart of winter ~ just three weeks before Valentine’s Day.This painted rock is likely part of the The Kindness Rocks Project, which was founded by Megan Murphy of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, who wanted to spread encouraging messages to strangers by writing them on rocks she found on the beach. The practice spread and launched similar projects across the United States.
The grassroots project encourages people to leave rocks painted with inspiring messages along the path of life. People are encouraged to take one, share one or add to the pile. You can see just how much impact she’s made when looking up #TheKindnessRocksProject. Learn more about how to join the movement at http://thekindnessrocksproject.com.
