The Butterfly Bush
On my way home this afternoon I couldn't help but notice all the butterflies circling and landing in my neighbor's front yard garden. I had heard of Butterfly Bushes, but didn't really know what they looked liked. I've been noticing quite a few butterflies on this plant... and confirmed it was indeed a Butterfly Bush.
While I was in the garden, I also managed to get up-close and personal with the Hydrangeas
Another lovely flowering vine was close by, unfortunately I know what these are called
It was a beautifully overcast afternoon, and the photo's was all in the same area. But my favorite photo for the day is one of the hydrangeas and it is on my Photo Page

188/365 Look at the time!
Buzz reminds me that I better get a picture for today... "it's getting late!"
Historic Track
July 4th weekend was a great time to take a trip out to Goshen, NY where the town was celebrating their Great American Weekend. We took a trip up on Saturday to visit the Historic Track, America's oldest track! Part of the week also included vendors and activities around the town.
A few pictures from the afternoon at the track -
Ulysses S. Grant once watched the races from the loft of this barn
The refreshment stand is located under the Grand Stand, and proudly displays it's National standing
The band stand and judges stand are prominently located where all can be clearly seen from the Grand stand
The town library participated in the The Great American Weekend by hosting a book sale, there were quite a few people gathering around for the sale.
Despite the heat, we enjoyed the day and may go back again in cooler weather to take the quick Walking Tour offered by the Chamber of Commerce.

185/365 Yumz!
Jeero managed to get out of the house tonight and was found at the local ice cream standing begging for some of the cold treats. Poor little guy, the heat is driving him mad.
Jeero: Me Luvz ice creams... is this one for me? You have more to share?
