Random Pictures

Last move out day for the oldest child.  Notice, we had to fold down the seats in the back of the van and remove one of the seats in order to get his stuff inside.  This is between loads.  The entire back of that car was packed full before we left.  4 years of college and books will do that!  We still have stuff in the back of the van that we need to finish unloading.

Really, really hard to see anything in these pictures, but this is graduation.  I took the pictures with my phone, so what can you expect?  I really didn't feel like keeping track of the "good" camera when I had no idea how far away we'd be parking and walking.  2,000 kids graduated.  And the speakers.  Dear heavens, the speakers.  Would they never stop?  Anyway, left picture is of my kid walking down the stage.  Right and below are pictures of the students in the processional.

The graduation robe!

We went to an Orioles game yesterday.  Again, these pictures were taken with my phone, so the quality is sketchy.  I was looking at the pictures that the Oriole's photographers took during the game online last night.  You know, you get those expensive cameras and onfield access, and you get some pretty awesome pictures!

Players lined up for the National Anthem.

The view from the top of the stairs on the Upper Deck at Camden Yards down over Baltimore.  The bridges are for 95 and 395.  That part of Baltimore used to have more tanks - 3 Natural Gas tanks in addition to the white tanks that are now in the picture.  The old tanks were taken down a few years ago.  That's still a very industrial part of the city right there.  You can't see the proliferation of train tracks along the ground from this view.

My Peonies have bloomed.  Yes, this is the real, unfiltered color.  Gorgeous, aren't they?
