The Brewer Wedding, Ravina on the Lakes



Yes, this was over a month ago, but it was a great wedding.  Enjoy the floating bags, flying hats, and the application of glasses, among other things.


Magic

Fourth of July (Fireworks and Phyllis!)











Nate playing with the cards. 


Glow stick time




This is Phyllis.  She is a bug named by Hosanna.



Phyllis the arm crawler.




Creepy face time.

All sorts of glowing things.


These fireworks are in Peoria, Illinois.  We were all in East Peoria watching across the river.  All the ashes tend to go over there (as you can see, the smoke was going that way) so I was glad we were in East Peoria.



With the flag!

Snake Alley Criterium, May 24th, 2014

These gifs are all from the Snake Alley Criterium in Burlington, Iowa.  I grew up in West Burlington, so I saw these races many times. I can hardly go up that road on my bicycle once slowly.  These riders go up it after going up a straight hill really fast!  It almost wears me out, but sure is fun to see.  I tried to get them in the order the race goes through town (although I admit I went backwards right after the race began.)

The Glowing Spot



These are all three the same Gif, but at different speeds.  I got this set of images by placing a waterproof flashlight in a lake and spinning the sand around a little.  It looks like a meteorite when you can't see the sand.  Anyway, I hope you find these interesting.
