So, I’m a day late … you’ll have to decide whether or not I’m a dollar short. I was off the grid yesterday, floating down a river in a tube with a group of teenagers and their moms (and a few dads). Well … we each had our own tube. There are now sunburns aplenty [...]

Well … LightGirl and LightHusband are off at a wedding. We were all invited as guests, but the bride & groom are trying to save some money (who isn’t these days?) and very politely inquired as to LightHusband’s availability for wedding photography.

UPDATE – Sunday morning … still in Richmond. The girls won yesterday. They played so hard and well. LightGirl had a shutout … she didn’t let one shot past her. This morning we play the championship game at 9:10. This time we’re playing a team we’ve beaten three times this season. And we’re the [...]
