Dirt Biking and Fine Dining on the Delaware River

by Carl LaVO on November 13, 2016

My buddy Frank Williams and I love to bike long distances on the Delaware Canal towpath in Bucks County. Nothing puts more of an accent on our adventures than fine dining at one of the area’s many inns and restaurants near the path. Recently, we started at Black Rock Road where it crosses the canal in Lower Makefield and set our sights on New Hope, 13 miles to the west. The scenery, as usual, was…

Amelia Q.'s #BucksCountyMoment: Delaware Canal Towpath

October 4, 2015

The Delaware Canal has been one of my favorite places to revisit time and time again. I go here pretty much on a weekly basis whether i'm riding my bike, jogging, or looking for the perfect photo opportunity.

It was exciting to climb the tower and take in the amazing views. You can't help but think about George Washington while you are…

Megan S.'s #BucksCountyMoment: Snow Covered Canal

January 25, 2015

The first snow day of the year is always magical, no matter how old you are! Peering outside my window I could see that the beautiful snow blanketed tree limbs, outlined fences and clung to wreaths hanging throughout the town, a scene right out of a snow globe. Having an apartment nestled in the middle of Yardley Borough gives me great access to the Yardley Canal. Every season paints a new…
