Trailing In The Leaves ...

“I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house. There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on the feelings, as now in October.”

                    ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne

                         ~ 1804-1864

A sunlit late October afternoon reflects in the Delaware Canal as I was trailing in the leaves along the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail).

I captured this image after starting out from the Forks of the Delaware Trailhead at Delaware Canal State Park, Easton, Pennsylvania.

The trail is positioned between the Delaware River and Delaware Canal, which was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1978. The site possesses national significance in commemorating the history of the United States of America.

Running from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and Delaware rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
