Another beautiful day so I took another vacation day.  Ran some errands and then went to Quiet Water’s Park.  We walked the trail closest to the entrance.  We haven’t been that way in a long time and got to see all the damage from the derecho.  Took a bunch of pictures and could not decide between these three.

We had planned to go to the Renaissance Fair but Mother Nature had other plans.  It was really humid today – my glasses kept fogging up every time I went outside.  It also rained on and off most of the morning and early afternoon.  I went outside to see if I could get some photos of flowers in the yard with raindrops – but rain had all dried up.  Walked over to the garden and this butterfly was fluttering all around.  It kept flapping its wings like a hummingbird and it was hard to get a good shot.  Liked the one with his wings fluttering – and also liked the one where it finally settled for a second.

It rained last night.  The temperatures were cooler today – only 82 degrees but it was still very humid.  Decided to go to Terrapin Park which is across the Bay Bridge and right alongside the Chesapeake Bay.  The white flowers or bushes were everywhere and they had a great smell.  Managed to get a few pictures – but there were lots of people there and it was overcast
