Eastern Tiger Swallowtail...

I captured this perfectly beautiful female
Eastern Tiger Swallowtail on my new butterfly bush yesterday.

It is one of the most common and most beautiful of the eastern butterflies.
 Not a mark on her, no wear or tear...I suspect she is new to the world.

Summer Movies

Back on the 8th, we enjoyed another movie, 
"under the stars"...

Indiana Jones and The Raiders of the Lost Ark

It was good to see Harrison again...and the rolling rock.
What I love most about these movies is being outdoors in the evening.
Pier Village is on the ocean so the temperatures are always cool,
and the movies are never crowded.
We bring our comfy chairs and lot's of snacks.

And on a day

when you needed a dozen of these just to survive...

we decided to hit up the 3:30 show of
Mission Impossible Fallout

Once again, the place was packed...
NOT!!
Doesn't anyone go to a summer movie anymore when it feels like it is 100 degrees outside.

The movie was good, I guess.
Typical "Mission Impossible"/"James Bond" type...
are they the same thing or different??
I like Tom Cruise as an actor, we saw this movie before we went to Connecticut,
and quite frankly as I am writing this, I don't really remember it.
I do remember that the air conditioning was awesome,
that was the best part.


So to summarize, This was good...
The Strawberry Lemonade was better!!
