In case you missed it, Patch didn't. Take a look at what was happening around Greater Annapolis in the past week.
Every day there is so much going on in Greater Annapolis and Patch is out there with cameras at the ready to help share just a slice of our local life. Check back each week for a photo gallery of local events, people and places. Greater Annapolis Patch brings you another diverse slideshow this week with a quiz on one photo.

For more information on the businesses we stopped at this week, visit www.mybutcherandmore.com, www.gatewayflorist.us and www.zucoffee.com. Enjoy the photos and let us know …
