Come Saturday Morning ...
"There is nowhere morning doesn't go."
~ Leah Hager Cohen
The Jordan Creeks spills over Wehr's Dam on a beautiful Saturday morning this
weekend., bringing to mind the 1969 Sandpipers song, "Come Saturday Morning."
Wehr's Dam is located at Wehr's Covered Bridge Park, Orefield, Pennsylvania.
The bridge was built in 1841 and restored in 1965.

Framing Autumn
~ Truman Capote, "Breakfast at Tiffany's."
Kreidersville Covered Bridge in Allen Township, Pennsylvania was built in 1839. The bridge is loved for its great history and tranquil setting by the Hokendauqua Creek. It is the only covered bridge left in Northampton County. Today it seemed the highlight of an autumn postcard.

Painting Light ...
"There was a time when meadow, grove and stream,
The earth, and every common sight,
To me did seem
Apparell'd in celestial light,
The glory and the freshness of a dream."
~ William Wordsworth
"Ode: Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood"
The autumn sun paints the stream last weekend at Trexler Memorial Park,
Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Road To Brigadoon ...
There my heart forever lies. Let the world grow cold around us, let the heavens cry above! Brigadoon, Brigadoon, in thy valley, there'll be love!"
~ "Brigadoon," Lerner & Loewe, 1947
As the morning light dapples on the path this weekend at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania, it seems as though it could be the road to Brigadoon!

The Painter's Dream
~ Vincent van Gogh
I love finding the spots tucked away from the main path for photos. This is one of
my favorites just behind the springhouse at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania. On this November afternoon the scene looked like a painting to me.

You Light Up My Life
"We are like butterflies who flutter for a day and think it is forever."
~ Carl Sagan
When I saw the sunlight filtering through the wings of these yellow butterflies on a beautiful Indian Summer day this weekend at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania, it reminded me of the 1977 Debby Boone song, "You Light Up My Life."

Falling Tears ...
~ "Autumn Leaves," French lyrics by Jacques Prevert, English lyrics by Johnny Mercer,
Music by Joseph Kosma, 1946.
Raindrops that looked like tears lingered on this leaf after the sun appeared this weekend at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania, reminding me of this line from the 1946 classic, "Autumn Leaves."

Of Glory In The Flower ...
"Though nothing can bring back the hour
of splendour in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not,
rather find strength in what remains behind ..."
~ William Wordsworth, "Ode: Intimations of Immortality
from Recollections of Early Childhood"
When I saw these flowers planted near the Saucon Rail Trail, Hellertown, Pennsylvania in the waning days of summer last week, it reminded me of these lines from my favorite poem.
