Vanilla Ice ...

“I got all my boyhood in vanilla winter waves around the kitchen stove.”

              ~ Jack Kerouac

                ~1922 ~ 1969

Winter’s icy beauty infuses Wehr’s Dam with a frozen splendor that makes the waters of the Jordan Creek look like vanilla ice on a late January day.

The dam, built in 1904, is next to Wehr’s Covered Bridge, which dates back to 1841, at Covered Bridge Park, Orefield, Pennsylvania.
