"The Master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both."

Wonderful shot. I have friends in Pottstown and chuckled a bit when I saw how close you were to where I live.

@Daniel Lanton: Thank you. Pottstown is just a stone's throw from New Hanover and I'm probably two hours from Scranton, where you live. Thanks for visiting.

I love how you shot this from the water side. That is an unexpected angle.
