Southbound on Broad Street
These images were captured on the G2 with the LUMIX VARIO G 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 MEGA O.I.S. kit lens while driving down Broad Street on race morning.
Lost my sense of direction as I tried to navigate around street closures and stumbled upon the mural in the bottom image.

Brenda (aka The Boss) and Mariel took advantage of the fabulous Spring temps to do some gardening. They planted some herbs, tomatoes, peppers and flowers.
Mariel names her plants and she calls these Columbines, Romeo and Juliet.

No More Treats
The brown powder puff bunnies will have to look elsewhere for their treat. The dandelions were mercilessly mowed down by the curmudgeonly gardener. That gardener was ME! :-D

Happy Mothers Day to all mothers out there!.
Added sunbursts, dropped exposure by 1½ stops, bumped the saturation and contrast in post-processing for the group Sliders Sunday. And it felt good to lay prone on the dewy grass! =D

Run, Ted, Run!!!
 |
| ** UPDATE ** Ted won his age group at the recent 2011 Broad Street Run! Congrats, Ted! |
This is Ted, my running hero, who is a bit camera shy! He raced the 2008 Broad Street Run 10-miler in 61 minutes and finished in the top fifteen of his age group.
Saw him at the gym on a Spin bike during our lunch break today. He hasn't been running much due to knee issues. No worries, he says, as the first corporate race is months away.
Healing vibes & more leg speed to you, Ted!
