Peace Valley Park

Around two weeks ago, I went for a hike at Peace Valley Park not far from Doylestown, Bucks County, PA. It was a beautiful sunny morning and early afternoon. The park is centered around Lake Galena. The following are just a few of the beautiful sights I saw. In this series is a picture of a turtle I almost stepped on. It startled me. And second from the end is a picture of a old and very thick grape vine in the surrounding woods.

    Oh wow, Tim! These photos are great. I can't believe how big that vine is! I wonder how old it is. :)

    Finally I find them ! I saw the flower (Soleil du Mexique = Mexican sunflower) at the top in a garden two years ago and never see them in any nursery.
    The turtle is terrible ! A true monster ! I'm afraid !
    :)
    What a wonderful view in the light and shade towards the river and the reed. This picture is the one I like the best today...

    All your photos show the beauty of nature – and I would have loved to get a piece of that blueberry lemon pound cake – some serious yum there!

    How many times over the years have I repeated that I love how often you take nature walks, Tim! I pray you will always be able to continue them. They're so much in your life's blood!
