A Little Snow - Lenape Park and Whitesmill Preservation Area

This past Friday night (February 10) into early Saturday morning we had a little bit of snow accumulating about an inch. But it was fast disappearing already when we got out to enjoy it. But below are a few pictures from Lenape Park near Perkasie, Bucks County, PA and Whitesmill Preservation Area in Salford Township, Montgomery County, PA.

A Walk at Lenape Park - Signs of Spring and More

Tuesday, a week ago on January 31, my wife and I took a hike at Lenape Park in Perkasie, Bucks County, PA. It was a beautiful evening. Among other things we were surprised by some signs of Spring. They are included in the latter part of the sights highlighted below.

A Walk Through Lenape Park

This past Thursday my wife and I took a walk in Lenape Park near Perkasie, Bucks County, PA. It was a delightfully warm mostly sunny day. Below are a few sights from that walk. It was peaceful and renewing to my soul. In one picture, you will see a creek; it is the East Branch of the Perkiomen Creek.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And the last picture below was a drawing by a sixth grader

in a Sunday School class at our church. We had filled in as

substitute teachers and this was her gift to us. I love it.
