Monticello.

The tour guides say he was brilliant.
His record keeping would be considered obsessive control, 
He was one of the United States of America's greatest statesmen. 
Imagine if he had been diagnosed and medicated.

Agricultural fairs have long stopped being what they should be.

Belle Isle Marsh.

We met at the nearest restaurant,  a whimsical Columbian place with maduros,  before today's hike.  The juxtaposition  of housing, airplanes, wildlife, and city skyline make Belle Isle Marsh unique.

I had the fortune of photographing a fundraising effort   for the Children's Tumor Foundation .   The event was family and dog friendly  which makes everything better . Some old rockers showed up too!     The official tally was 75 people gathered for a walk     around the Putnam River Trail .    The Frog Rock Trio provided music  until a DJ relieved them.   There was dancing, balloon hats,  eating, reunions, and new connections.   The local business community provided dozens of raffle baskets.  Scarecrows were made by even cuter children. All organized by a local hero  and her team. If you wish to know more about this fundraiser visit their website:  https://join.ctf.org/putnam/events/2016-putnam-nf-walk/e71892  .
