We decided to head to Emerald Lake State Park.  We have driven by it numerous times but have never stopped and we recently picked up a book on good places for photos and the author mentioned that this was his second favorite lake.  What a nice park.  We walked about 3/4 of the way around the lake.  We were not sure if the path went all the way around the lake so decided to play it safe.  The author suggested that you go in the morning to get better reflection shots.  We also figured it would be cooler in the morning.  We had only walked a short way when we noticed the water lilies.  What a nice surprise.

Squire House Red Barn

Something besides flowers for a change. Decided to take a long weekend and we headed for Vermont. Can’t believe it’s been a year since we have been to Vermont. Had to drive through a really bad thunderstorm in upstate New York. It took us a good 30 to 45 minutes to drive thru the storm and the temperature dropped 20 degrees in 15 minutes. It was 91 degrees in Severna Park when we left and it’s 72 degrees in Vermont. Enjoying the cooler weather.I took a picture of this barn when we were here in February of last year just after it snowed so thought I would take another shot of it in the summer

Headed back to the community beach to see if I could get a better shot of the queen lace’s lace that looked like an umbrella that I took yesterday but could not find it – not sure if it bloomed and now it’s standing straight up or something happened to it.  So had to settle for one that has not bloomed yet.
