Good times at the pool this summer

Duffy plants a kiss on Ellie. Maybe the cause was the pool’s change this year from chlorine to saline.

Rim Drive

biking crater lake national park rim road

Rim Drive around Crater Lake offers many majestic views. Although the road is paved, it isn’t an easy ride. There can be lots of cars (avoid weekends and holidays), and there isn’t a flat section to be found. As a rider you’ll do lots of climbing.

Today’s photo of Ryan is of one of those brief downhill moments.

Couple more pics of the Deftones

The Deftones are a bit of a mixed bag in my eyes. I really love songs like “Digital Bath” and “Minerva.” When they mix in rap I lose interest. Unfortunately, the two songs I took videos of were not my favorites. I had a new SD card all queued up and ready to go for an encore I was hoping would included “Minerva.” They didn’t play it though and didn’t even really do an encore (although some band members briefly left the stage a couple songs before the end). So while it was a good show, I was a bit disappointed in the end.

Deftones, part 3

This was actually the second time I have seen the Deftones in concert. Well, sort of.

The first time was at Ozzfest in 1999. I caught maybe one or two songs during the Deftones’ set. There were too many interesting things going on at Ozzfest to get caught up in the music until Slayer and Black Sabbath came on. I don’t remember exactly what I was doing during the Deftones, but I could have been watching Ozzy Karaoke, topless swings, or naked bull riding. The whole day is a blur now. I do remember seeing Slipknot, before anyone had heard of them. I’m pretty sure I completely missed Primus, System of a Down, Fear Factory, and Static-X. Too bad since now I like all four. And I clearly remember seeing Rob Zombie, a horrible show–almost as bad as when he played at Loud Park last year.

Deftones (part 2 of ?)

Before the Deftones began their set I went up to the Medford Armory’s “beer garden” on the second floor. There was a grand total of one beer to choose from, Coors Light. I decided to hang out upstairs for the first couple songs. I took a video from there of the second song they played, “Rocket Skates” off their new CD “Diamond Eyes” which you can view below.

Notice how much sweat Chino Moreno is covered with at this point in the show compared to yesterday’s photo later in the evening.
