Beautiful Day for Pictures

I went out shooting with my friend Carol yesterday, it was a great morning for pictures. We started out at a nearby cemetery on the river.


Found this Lubber grasshopper lounging around on a headstone. He was a wary but willing model for our efforts ;)
After we saw all there was to see there, we headed on up the road to a favorite park, also on the river. Saw lots of action in the butterfly garden, but the sun was getting high, which meant it was getting hotter, so we headed to the river and some shade.
RJ had fun stump-jumping and exploring this fallen tree
It was a lot more shady by the water, but even with the little bit of breeze, it was still pretty hot. I'll be glad when some cooler weather comes our way!
I pushed RJ on the swing for a little bit, and then convinced him it was time to get some lunch. Only the promise of some ice cream would get him to budge!

Beautiful day, a good friend, photo ops galore and ice cream! What more could you want? ;oP

Such wonderful pictures. I love the water picture! And I love seeing R. He's growing up so fast and so handsome.

By the way, what's happened to the rest of the bloggers down there?
