This time of the year we get hazy, hot days and not too many photogenic skies. Last Sunday was a little better and we took our grandsons into town. Carroll Creek runs through the Frederick business district. After a major flood in 1976, the city build a flood control system to carry the excess water under the brick walk ways on either side of the creek. The area along the creek was redeveloped with new housing on the right and offices, restaurants and shops on the left. The creek provides some nice reflections of the buildings and skies. The lights along the creek also make a nice photo subject. You can see more of our day at the creek and Baker Park on Marianne's blog and my other blog.
