A Morning's Visit to Lake Nockamixon, part 2

This past Tuesday morning I visited Nockamixon State Park on the Quakertown side, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Below are some photos of plants and landscape sights from that hike.

All the photos are great, but I especially like the last one.; 12/17/2006 12:33:00 AM

Thanks, faye pekas. It is a great view.

Hi, murf. Some of those pictures were taken then and some a bit later in the morning.

Thanks, fred. The tree with the red fruit on is one of my favorites, too.

Thanks, trailady. These pictures are taken in Pennsylvania. And no, you didn't quite spell the place name right. It is Nockamixon. It's located near Quakertown, Pennsylvania if you want to look it up on a map to get a general idea.; 12/17/2006 10:29:00 PM

sage said...: beautiful pics and you keep reminding me of how PA has many places with names i can't spell; 12/18/2006 11:08:00 PM

But as always, your pics are great, walk after walk!; 12/19/2006 08:19:00 AM

Tim Rice said...: Hi, san nakji. I think you're right that this place could be amazing when there's lots of snow. We'll have to wait and see if it gets cold enough to snow. We've been having an aweful lot of abnormally warm weather.

Thanks, mreddie. It is a good place to recharge one's emotional batteries.

Thanks, sage. I think many place names around here originate from Native American place names.

Thanks, ginnie. I would love to continue to post on Shutterchance. But it is a matter of time priority. Back in November, I started dating a very dear girlfriend. She takes priority and she has been a great blessing to me.

Hi, merili. Thanks for coming by!; 12/19/2006 06:36:00 PM
Katie said...: Thanks for taking me along on your walk again. I really enjoyed it. The bulge on the weed in earlier post has a small white worm in it. No disease - just borrowing a place to stay. My DH collected the weeds and harvested the worms to catch fish. Very good bait. So happy you have found someone special. Merry Christmas and a Very Happy New Year.; 12/20/2006 01:23:00 PM

Beautiful pictures as ever
I particularly like red berries (in France we do marmelade with wild rose berries); 12/30/2006 01:03:00 AM
