Notes

Very hot and humid evening. Water was very calm. Geese were on the bank nearby, as is typical. Very few people in the park. A stage was set up behind the electrical panels in preparation for a weekend festival at Old Trace Park. Further preparations were evident along the walking trail for a weekend 5K.
