A Hike at Swamp Creek Park

Tuesday two weeks ago, I went for a hike at Swamp Creek Park in New Hanover Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. It was a warm sunny delightful day to be out and about in nature. Below are some of the sights from my hike.

Swamp Creek Schoolhouse built circa 1850

Pretty blooms



A fallen tree trunk with a beauty all its own



I think this might be an older schoolhouse
used prior to the one built circa 1850
