Sundown rocket

Sailing into the night.  The sun had fallen beyond the horizon and was only sending rays to top of our darkening skies.  They captured the tail of this bird, making it appear as though a rocket.  It seems a shame that the folks in the plane couldn't see what was happening behind them.

Don't hit the road Jack!

What do you want to bet this is a family conversation going on with Mom and Dad trying to convince youngster it is not safe to leave home at such and early age?  The shot is in Audubon Park in New Orleans.

Mardi Gras Rock and Roll Marathon

I didn't get a chance to show photos from the New Orleans Mardi Gras  Rock and Roll Marathon a couple weeks back.  Our son, Charles, was racing in it.  We've been to a few of these, but this was perhaps the best (for us spectators) -- the scenery of City Park, the magnificent, stately, shady oaks along the path, bands every mile.  It was a  pleasant day in the park.
