Goodness, y'all! I'm so far behind on posting and editing I don't know whether to scratch my watch or wind my butt. :)
In March, my high school BFF, Michelle, planned a wonderful mini vacay for us the first weekend of May. Neither of us had visited Percy Quin State Park before, so we treated it like a grand adventure. We hadn't had a sleepover since 1975! The weather couldn't have been more beautiful. The evening was cool, so we sat outside on the picnic bench in sweatshirts drinking wine. Oh, how I wish Michelle would let me post the video of her singing "Hello Darlin'" by Conway Twitty, using the mosquito repellant as a microphone. She's so fun and crazy! We now refer to ourselves as Lucy and Ethel. Guess who plays Ethel? And I'm okay with that! :)
Since there are so many photos, here is day 1:

We met my dad and stepmom here the first night for dinner. |

A few glasses of these and I had a talent show on my hands. LOL |

In typical Michelle fashion she insisted on tidying up the place! |

Can anyone help ID this cute little butterfly? I'm thinking some kind of Hairstreak. |
