Quite Quiet Waters

Yesterday Jack and I spent the morning at Quiet Waters Park in Annapolis. Quiet Waters is a huge park (many many acres) on the South River. I guess Wednesday isn't a big day for the park, because we pretty much had it to ourselves. We drove all the way to the back of the park by the Dog Beach and took a beautiful walk down to the South River Promenade and Overlook. We did get to see a few lucky pooches wading in the water, chasing tennis balls and sticks. Mostly, we just enjoyed the view and the solitude.
From the parking lot you walk through a wooded path towards the river. When you emerge from the woods, this is the view you have. It was the perfect day...sunny, not a cloud in the sky, and unusually not humid - unheard of for July.

This is the gazebo where we ate our lunch and watched the passing boats.


My attempt to take a self-portrait....really the only downfall to an empty park...no one to take our picture!



My one and only picture of Jack smiling! He must love the park! I sure had a wonderful time.




After the park we stopped by the local doggie shop and picked up a special "daisy" shaped treat for Mr. Bailey. Jack picked it out himself! As you can see, he loved it!





It was sooooo beautiful we just had to admire it for awhile!
