Total number of pictures from yesterday and today: 653.<\/p>\n
I can’t even count the number of times I walked the seven or eight blocks to Jim’s house to escape the crowd and find some air conditioning. Between that, spending hours on my feet, being at the square at 6:45 AM this morning to shoot the race, the heat, the noise, and the food … I’m wiped out.<\/p>\n
I’ve uploaded a few more pics – five, I think – to add to my Flickr pics tagged with Cookeville Fall Fun Fest<\/A>.<\/p>\n Why have I only uploaded eight out of 650 pictures? I dunno. Call me super picky. Chances are if you looked at ’em all you’d probably pick a different eight. I have no<\/I> clue if the folks for whom I was taking all these will like them or even use them. Apparently there’s a fallfunfest.com<\/A> page with galleries of last year – and each gallery has four or five shots in it. I get the feeling I pressed the shutter button WAY too often.<\/p>\n Today’s fun: walking up to the Cookeville Police Department Drug Awareness booth, tapping my finger on the largest bong in the ‘collected paraphernalia’ display, and asking, “How much you want for this one?”<\/p>\n I tell you what, man, those city cops got no<\/I> sense of humor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Total number of pictures from yesterday and today: 653.
