rebecca_in_blueSara and I were both off yesterday, so we drove downtown to the art gallery. There's an exhibit there called Reflections on Water in American Painting -- tons of different paintings of seascapes by American artists. We enjoyed looking at all of them. This was one of my favorites:
Children Playing on the Beach, an 1890 oil-painting by Edward Percy Moran. Isn't it pretty?
Then we drove over to the lake to feed stale bread the ducks. And of course, I had to take photos.
We attracted ducks, pigeons, geese, seagulls, and more. It kinda turned into a feeding frenzy.
Ugh, those geese were awful! They were very loud and aggressive. This one charged at me, and like an idiot, I decided to take a photo instead of running away. God hates geese!
Then we went for a walk along the lake. I climbed down to the shoreline to walk on these rocks. I took my shoes off, which turned out to be a very bad idea because the rocks were sharp, the pavement was scorching, and the grass was prickly! I also got sand all over my jeans.
The water was cool, though.
Then we meandered back over to the fountain...
...where I found this little butterfly necklace that someone lost.
Ahhh, summer! I hope to get out and do more activities and fun stuff this summer than I did last year. Wish me luck!
