To Bee or Not To Bee

Description

I always like to vary the subjects of my postings from day to day, but we're hustling to get out the door for one of our day trips so I'll have to make do with yet another dahlia from the Mill Creek Park garden. We're heading south to historical Zoar Village (Ohio) and a few places in between, so hopefully I'll find a goody or two along the way (photographically speaking). TGIF, and not a moment too soon!
