To the fallen...

I was driving through Luverne on my way to Rutledge last Saturday when I was surprised to see this scene on the side of the road. There were rows and rows of white crosses, set up like you might see at Arlington, and each one had its own little flag. I assume this is the work of the Rotary Club, since it's at the same area as their fountain and flags.

I made a note that I'd have to stop and take a picture later. Even though there was a thunderstorm threatening on my way back, I pulled off and snapped a few shots. This was probably the best one, and I did a little editing to make it more interesting.

I figured this was also probably an appropriate post for today. Happy Memorial Day, everyone.

I shall call him Squishy...

A month or two ago, my parents and I took a weekend and went to Atlanta. The main purpose of the trip was for my mother to see the exhibit at the Civic Center about Princess Diana, but we worked in some stuff for everyone.

We visited World of Coke and caught a Braves game later that night. Obviously, the next day brought a trip to the aquarium. I was walking around like a kid in a candy shop, snapping pictures left and right. If you ever get the chance to go to the Georgia Aquarium, I highly recommend it.

State champions

I recently got the privilege of covering a state championship baseball game, and this was one of the better images. I also nearly got run over taking it.
