Green Lane Park is actually the start of the Perkiomen Trail which goes all the way south to Oaks. The trail is 20 miles and it can be walked if anyone cares to do that. Not me. I will stick to my treadmill.
This photo was taken from a bridge. In person it is quite spectacular, and I am sure it is even nicer when the sun is shining.
This one was taken from the same bridge. If you enlarge it, you can see a swan being protected by a flock of Canada geese.
This mountain shot was taken in Vera Cruz. Pennsylvania, not Mexico. I wish.
This is the same mountain range. I especially liked this farm scene but I can't say why. It just kind of caught my eye for some reason.
We spent the entire day just driving around and occasionally we would stop if something intrigued us.At one point we visited a new Walmart store. Alongside of it is Blommer Chocolate. They are noted for their chocolate candy and especially for their cocoa. Let me tell you, the aroma drifting through the air was absolutely marvelous. So much so, that I had to go inside Wally World to get something chocolate. I settled for a box of low carb bars made by SlimFast.
All in all we had a good time but I would have enjoyed the day much more had the sun been shining. Oh well, we can't have everything.

MMMMMMMMM... someone mention chocolate??? That is some pretty countryside.
You had the kind of day that we all would like to have had. I spent mine working on a John Deere disk.
Beautiful tour, Thanks!!
I saw the swan. Great pic. You must have a good camera.
Tiredawg ~ I've said it before, Penna. does have some nice countryside but housing developments are springing up everywhere. I guess the government prefers housing to farming. Forget the fact that those people buying those houses need to eat. Duh.
Cliff ~ Working on a John Deere is not so bad. I love farms and all aspects of them.
My camera is a Canon A520. I think it was on the market for a year and is no longer being made. One cannot keep ahead of technology these days.
stshores24 ~ Thank you for leaving a comment. Don't be a stranger. I have visited your site many times.
Ooooh! Love the photos.
I like the farm scene too. All very nice photos, but that one is my favorite.
we have lots of snow, and no wonderful colors like that. Looks so neat.
The farm scene looks like a picture from a calendar. I like it.
You had a lovely ride through a lovely countryside, I can tell.
Thanks for sharing it and some of that pretty scenery with us.

Perikomen? We stayed on Perkiomen road in Reading, in the spring, for yes, a baseball tournament! The kids took the tourney, first place, against many tough teams, I think a state champ was in that bunch too. We have played many state champs lately. Anyhow, love the photos, the day didn't do the colors justice, but they were beautiful and subdued.I love the "calander" one too! It almost looks like someone plopped this color here and that color there to make it happen the way it did.
