Line - Adrian, MI
I made it back into the dance studio Monday. I was so thrilled to see ballet and jazz again. This photo is one of my early favorites while editing. Still have many more photos to go through.Friday, January 29, 2010
Miss America
I've been watching this for as long as I can remember: Miss America. I remember sitting in front of the TV with my sisters watching the competition. As I got a little older, I would write down the scores from swimsuit, talent, evening gown and on-stage question to figure out the winner. I don't know if I ever picked the correct winner.Saturday night TLC will be showing the 2010 Miss America Pageant live from Las Vegas at 8 p.m./EST. I will be watching. Last July, I was photographing the Miss River Raisin Festival Scholarship Pageant for work and Miss Michigan 2009 Nicole Blaszczyk helped host the pageant. Nicole performed her talent of a lyrical dance for the crowd. It was wonderful. She is a beautiful dancer. Last night, Nicole won a preliminary award for talent on the last night of competition for the 2010 Miss America Pageant. I'm hoping she will will make the top ten and have a chance for Miss America 2010.

Random things
These past couple of weeks have been busy. It seemed like I was always in my car driving somewhere.
The start of this week, I was in my car once again driving 85 miles one way to cover a regional boys game. I know I spent more time driving back and forth, then at the game itself.
I used Google maps to get directions to the school. When I was driving through the town, I couldn't find the street I was looking for. I drew a map of the area for the drive home and it came in handy. I used that map to find my way to the school. I found the street the school was on and turned on it. I saw a school building and pulled into the parking lot. While sitting in the lot, I noticed a bunch of parents waiting for their kids to finish practice. That should have been my first clue something wasn't right. After 10 minutes of seeing girls leaving with their parents I knew something was up. I kept thinking "Where are the buses?" "Where are the fans for the game?" I started my car and went back up the driveway to drive around the school. Once I was in front of the school I looked to see if there was a drive leading to the back of the school. There wasn't. That is when I looked straight ahead and saw the high school. I was sitting in the middle school lot. DUH. I pulled out of the lot and drove up the street to the high school parked and went in. After the game I was stopped at the end of the school's driveway waiting for traffic when I saw a road sign. It was the street I was looking for when. If only I went up a couple more blocks.
I scheduled myself to cover a college baseball game at 1 p.m. Tuesday. Also on the schedule was a college softball game at 3:30 p.m., at the same university. All of the other photographers were busy, so I had to cover it. It was a nice, sunny day so I didn't mind being outside. I got my first sunburn of the year also. What I didn't enjoy about the games was standing on concrete. For both games I shot in the dugout. Standing on concrete for over 4 hours didn't help my plantar fasciitis at all. My heel was killing me. After work I still needed to get my workout done even though my heel hurt. I changed my clothes and got on the treadmill for three miles. It was a long day. Eleven hours of work and three miles run.
After a long Monday and Tuesday, I decided to take it easy Wednesday. I had my oil changed after work, ate lunch, took a nap and ran 6 miles. I don't consider 6 miles easy, but it was nice to stay home and really not do anything.
My plans are to take it easy again today. I finished work at 10:30 a.m. and my plans for the rest of the day is to make lunch, watch the NCAA tournament, nap, run and photograph a dance class.
I didn't fill out a bracket like everyone else at work did. If I did, I would have picked Duke to win it all. I love Duke. I think they are a very good team especially when they nail their 3s. It would be nice to see them win it, but I don't know if they can. There are a bunch of good teams this year. Besides Duke, I would like to see the Big Ten teams do well. Michigan plays Clemson tonight. Go Blue!

One of my favorite photos that I took of this class. All of the focus is on the dancer behind the teacher.

I'm sick of hearing, talking and thinking about the election. I can't wait until its over. No more ads on TV, radio or in my mailbox. Here is something that has nothing to do with politics.
