Our kids leave for overnight camp in the morning so, after dinner, I decided to pack everyone (including the dog) into the car and head over to Coffey Ice Cream for a couple of scoops. As we ate, we walked to Crocker Park and I took several shots of the kids and dog on the Bud’s bench and the chair swing. As everyone was getting ready to leave, I took a glance at the harbor and quickly hurried over to this spot just under the flag pole to capture the great clouds that formed as a result of the hot and humid weather.

With Marblehead harbor filled with boats and the skies practically screaming out heat wave, the scene before me seemed to perfectly capture the feeling of summer nights at Crocker Park.
