The 5th time is the charm…

No luck with the comet for us this long weekend away due to various reasons but Venus & The Moon over the Pennsylvania farmscape are a wonderful consolation prize.

7/9/25 Cownose rays were EVERYWHERE! Cool sight to see - so close to shore & a curious crowd enjoying the moment!

Love these graceful swimmers that are generally harmless to people!
