Day 243

Today Alex and I went to Colonial Williamsburg, VA to test out a history game they put together for families. It's a beautiful place, so while wondering around the grounds I took some photos.

This is male, because it's yellow. The females are almost black, but have the same details.


The sun was high above us all day with a heat index of about 108.
