The Ford In Winter ...

“The snow is melting into music.”

   ~ John Muir

   ~1838-1914

Winter frosts the Ford of the Jordan Creek, one of my very favorite places to be and to photograph, at Trexler Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, composing a symphony of winter beauty.

I shot this frosty scene as the light of the looming sunset waltzes on the icy waters soon after the historic January Blizzard of 2016. In a winter shorn of snow until the blizzard, the storm plonked 31 inches of snow on nearby Allentown in a 24 hour period.

Ford Every Stream ...


"Climb every mountain,
Ford every stream ...
Till you find your dream."
                  ~ "Climb Every Mountain"
                                       ~ "The Sound of Music"
                                                 ~ Rodgers & Hammerstein, 1959

Even the family dog seems to enjoy the summer morning ride to 
Ford the Jordan Creek at Trexler Nature Preserve,
Schnecksville, Pennsylvania.  
For more than 50 years kids and kids at heart have
enjoyed driving through the creek.
