Subtitle: Jennings Pond is a small pond associated with Buttermilk
State Park, even though it's nowhere near the park. It has a small
swimming area, bathrooms, grills, and a trail in the woods that goes
around the pond, though not all the way around. Unfortuantely, we did
not see any beavers nor beaver lodges this time.
I had been there several years earlier. This time I went with
Rob and Stephanie on Memorial Day, May 26, 2014.

DSC_6794: I liked how changing the contrast and brightness made the background fade out by the colors of my clothes looked fairly normal. I did no other post-processing.
