About the Cover

 

This is a clean shot of the photo I used for this month's header...

It's the Susquehanna River from Nesbitt Park, looking back toward the Wilkes-Barre skyline.

That's the Market Street Bridge, which has seen dozens of high water events over the years.  It's still standing, and considering the punishment this span has taken, that always amazes me.

The river at the time this shot was taken was running at about 2.5 feet, about forty feet below where it was fifty years ago.
