socially distanced on the d&l


Yesterday I emailed my friend Pam about a design project and she suggested we walk today. She chose the D&L. I chose toward Allentown.


It was drizzling when we met at the icehouse. but we walked anyway. It quickly stopped. We went almost two miles to the bridge. I always wanted to see what was on the other side of the bridge.


There was a huge hole in the decking. On the other side of the bridge was a home made, and maybe illegal, bike park. The path took us to the railroad tracks. We couldn't see what was on the other side because a train was going thru. We turned around and went back to the bridge and the trail. Then headed back toward the parking lot.


When we reached the big lots where they store the bikes for the bike and boat program I noticed this sign.  I thought maybe it was a fitness trail but it turned out to be a bike repair station. A handy place for it. We took the trail under the bridge and up the ramp and down the steps and back to the icehouse.

Miles/Steps:                 3.5 miles 
Weather:                      mid- 40s, overcast, chilly and damp. A little drizzle
Wildlife:                        male mallard
