The stuff you find lurking around in the desert. This little one is so much nicer than the scorpion that I found creeping across the living room carpet toward me! Yikes – I don’t do scorpion’s. Figures I would be there for the first ever scorpion sighting inside the house.
Ryan’s team won (6 to 36) the game – go Senators! – and I think I got a few good shots on my memory card. We drove further out into nowhere’s and amongst the ranches found the football field. Fun time for all.
Near the end of the game I stretched out on my stomach and shot from that position. As one of the players was running the ball he got close in my lens and I just kept zooming back to get the shots as he ran. All of a sudden my lens was unable to focus – this means the subject is too close – in this case – way to close. I looked out from the viewfinder just as the kid was tackled em about two feet to my left. The moms all think I am a very brave soul and worthy of respect – truth is by the time it registered with my brain that this might not be a good thing it was all over LOL.
The drive back was uneventful, the rest stops were open YEAH and we made it back in time to catch the party Lucio and Kara invited us to. Lots of good food homemade Mexican style – yum. Not sure what all I had cause my Spanish is not so good. Loud music is a must and the kids were having a blast in one of those bouncy house things that are popular now.
Ryan’s sense of humor at work.
Stretched out on your stomach. Now is that prone or supine? I can never keep those two straight. I was stretched out on my back watching football Sunday afternoon. No cameras. Just pillows.
LOL remembering the correct spelling of stomach was hard enough – but I believe that prone is face down and supine is face up. Stretched out on a couch versus laying inches from the sideline – not something they allow here in California. I guess the wild west attitude in Nevada overrides the fear of liability when a middle aged woman chooses to lie (or is it lay?) in harms way bra haha hahahah . …
Although funny, that is a really Bad picture. Ryan has a twisted sense of humor – right up my alley!
