Gilbert Run Park

I visited Gilbert Run Park briefly to check out the fall colors.  The light was beautiful for a short while toward the end of the day.  The bridge area where birds sometimes hang out had already lost the light.

Chesapeake Bay Critical Area Driving Tour

We went back to the driving tour from Patuxent River Park to Merkle Park to see how different it is in the Spring.  We visited it last year in the Autumn.  I kind of liked the fall season better.  I suspect it might be quite buggy in the Summer on the trails.  This time I saw mountain laurel, osprey, a water skier, turtles and fishermen.

The walk to the top of this observation tower is quite steep.

The bridge wood knot reminded me of a fish.

I waved at the kayakers paddleing under the bridge.



   I liked how the leaves created shadows.

Elms Beach State Park

 We visited Elms Beach before the summer crowd.  It was pleasantly cool, a fun place to explore and made a nice peaceful visit with our old dog, Sarita.

Leonardtown Fun Photo Walk

The St. Mary's County Camera Club got together to photograph Leonardtown recently at 7 pm.  The sky was quite gray and the light wasn't too interesting, but it wasn't raining and we had fun.  Here are the best shots.
