Paraglider practicing in Seattle

This guy was practicing his paragliding at Cal Anderson Park in Seattle last month. I guess it's catching on everywhere!

Dancing Drag Queens









The game drew a large crowd.





















This is no ordinary softball game. For donations people can buy all manner of things such as making people leapfrog, run bases, get an automatic home run, or be out.






In the end, the Dykes won this one because they brought in more donation money.

Bat-N-Rouge

Last weekend was the annual Bat-N-Rouge softball game with the Dykes vs. the Drag Queens. I took my SLR, but the batteries were dead! Drat. Luckily, I had my new back up point and shoot. I'm still learning all the features of this camera. This event was perfect to try out the action setting, so here you see the results of one "action shot." If they were in a flip book, it would look like a motion picture!

Heading for Sledding

I took a break from working at home today to go to the Post Office and take a walk around the block.





Mission Accomplished!

Post Office Line. Yup, it's the Holidays! Not even icy roads will keep these people from mailing their packages.

Two Things Challenge: Cloud/Nine

Clouds... check! Lamposts? There could be nine. There could be more...

Fun in the Snow

It snowed in Seattle which is a rarity. I worked from home today, but took a break to go out and take these photos.

I also saw someone ice-skating on the street in front of my building last night!
