249/365 Breakfast and Lake Louisa

With my parents in town, we celebrated with a wonderful homemade breakfast! Matthew made homemade biscuits and fried up some bacon while mom and I got some melons and blueberries ready.

We enjoyed our breakfast on my patio garden. It doesn't look half bad in this picture.

Afterwards, we headed out to Lake Louisa State Park. It's a huge park in our area that my parents haven't been to yet. The day was hot, but the views were great.

I have no idea what this is! It's an orange moth like creature about the size of my pinkie finger.

Dunno what this is

Not sure what this is either. Maybe a salamader?

I think it's a salamander

Anyways - back to the lake.
