Tonight was family night at color guard practice. We had dinner and then the kids put on an exhibition for the families. I got some very cool shots, but the coach wants to keep their new uniforms a secret until their first live performance. So all I’m going to post is a photo of one of the cakes from the dessert table.

While stuck in traffic today I made this photo. Have you ever noticed the age of the bridge you are about to cross? At what age would you think it was unsafe? Why do they have the year it was built on the side of the bridge anyway? And does the date matter to someone with gephyrophobia, the fear of bridges?

I met my Dad and Brandon for lunch today at The Elevation Chop house and Skybar. There were only two airplanes to take off while we were eating; above is a photograph of one of them.
