Just Dandy ...


“Butterflies … flowers that fly and all but sing.”
       ~ Robert Frost

         ~ Four Time Pulitzer Prize Winner
A white butterfly alights on a dandelion on a beautiful – and dandy – April afternoon along the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail) 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.

I Will Remember You ...

"I will remember you
will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories." 
                       ~ Sarah McLaughlin, 1995

This dandelion puff on a May evening 
at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania
brought to mind that wonderful song.
