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.

Smallwood State Park October 24, 2023

 We took a little Camera Club trip to Smallwood Park since I had never been there.  It was the estate of the fourth Governor of Maryland.

St. Mary's County Fair 2023

I know it is a little late, but I briefly visited the St. Mary's County Fair the day it opened.  Everything was fresh and new.

 

Confusion: Duck Style

 I am in the process of fixing up a new laptop, so I found some photos from last year taken on the way to Leonardtown on Route 5.  Three Ducks decided to cross the road.  Why is it always 3?  It should be simple, but maybe not.  I sat in my car, waiting for them to decide how to cross the road.  Silliness ensued.

It started out okay.  Heading the right direction.

A discussion occurred.  Are you sure this is the right way?

No.  It must be the other way.

I'm not sure I agree.  I think we need to go that way. (This may look like a previous photo, but I checked the numbers to be sure they were in the correct order.  Hmmm)

Now we've got it!

Sunflowers 3

 My third visit for 2023 was also colorful, with lots of amazing sunflower colors.
