Description
"Roaring dreams take place in a perfectly silent mind.
Now that we know this, throw the raft away."
~ Jack Kerouac
~ 1922-1969
Whether your mind is harkening back to bygone Aprils or racing with hopes for the future, April on the Delaware River is a beautiful place to dream.
Whether you're cruising in a speedboat or fishing with your dog as first mate on a small craft shaded by a green umbrella, sailing the river that straddles New Jersey and Pennsylvania offers a glorious vista.
It's also a spectacular view from the Riverton-Belvidere Toll Supported Bridge, my vantage point when capturing this shot on a day teeming with the best of spring's sun and warmth.
The bridge, which opened in 1904, links Belvidere, New Jersey and Riverton, Pennsylvania.
Belvidere, one of my very favorite places, is a charming Victorian town located on the banks of the Pequest and Delaware Rivers.

What a pretty image and river, it's quite large looking and so smooth...f/l If I remember my history, George Washington crossed the Delaware...
Tami Quigley replied:
Thanks so much Karen! Yes, Washington crossed, but this is the other end of the Delaware in Jersey, about 80 miles from where he was in Valley Forge. It is a big river for sure:)
