Totally took it hard to the hole.

That's what she said? </amihumor>

Over the River

and through the hoods, to El Capitol we go.

And Spring is now technically here! So, why do we have 5" of fresh slushy snow on the ground?

Over and Under

Jason Bradwell — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 00:00:00 CDT

The new Center street ped/bike bridge is finally nearing completion. One side will be for foot traffic, the other side for bike traffic.

And the Des Moines river is creeping higher & higher under the bridge. We're predicted to reach reservoir levels just shy of the 2008 floods by the end of next week. Right now, this is pretty much entirely from snow melt. If we have a wet spring, we're totally screwed, since the flood problems didn't even start to begin until April-May in '08 and '93.

64° yesterday... more snow today...

More Multi

Another moment, carved out of time, x3.

Station of the Union

I give you permission to pinch this photo, since it hasn't any green. Unless you count the G in RGB, then hands off!

V-Rod

Took a tour of the Harley-Davidson factory in Kansas City yesterday afternoon. Not really a HOG fan, but it was still pretty sweet to see all the assembly lines & how the bikes are built. Too bad they didn't allow cameras on the factory floor.

Life Skills

This guy learned everything he needed to be successful in life way back in pre-school. Hope he didn't throw away money on that college crap! ;)

State Basket

Jason Bradwell — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 00:00:00 CST

Pretty sure the majority of kids decide to play the trumpet, simply because they can get away with flipping people the bird all day long. This benefit continues well into adulthood.

I play the trombone so I can dump spit on your head from several feet away.

Harrison Barnes of Ames certainly has what it takes to make it big! He's lead Ames to two undefeated seasons, and is well on the way to their second straight State Championship.

Some say he's the best player in the history of Iowa High School Basketball. Barnes was just named National Player of the Year yesterday morning.

Down with the Upside

Figured you all might appreciate a non-basketball shot today ;)

Glee Incomin

Jason Bradwell — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 00:00:00 CST

No offense to the girls, but after shooting their games for 5 days last week, I'd completely forgotten how fast-paced & high-flying a game of basketball can be ;)

Oh, My...

Jason Bradwell — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 00:00:00 CST

This past week, I obviously shot at the Girls State Basketball Tournament... a lot.

Shot 5 out of the 6 days, covering 15 out of the 28 games. I always shot with at least one remote camera, sometimes two, so three cameras going at the same time.

What massive quantity of images does such an undertaking produce? I came home with 19,710 total photos, eating up 369GB of precious hard drive.

Up tonight: boys state LOL...

Waukon Gets Walked On

Jason Bradwell — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 00:00:00 CST

Wow, you'd think they just won the 3A basketball state championship, or something!

Bishop Heelan walked all over Waukon for a 73-54 victory last night at The Well. The girls were just a tad excited.
