Southern Oregon University Women’s Rugby Prom Dress Game 2013 – Raider Stadium
Today was the second, annual Women’s Rugby, Prom Dress Style in Ashland. I have maybe fifty decent photos that I’ll be posting, most over the summer when I’m out of town. For now, I’ll start you off with these four.
What began like this …
… evolved into the gap being closed like this …
… and finally this (which would have been a great shot had the official not been in the way).

Today’s photo is from the archives. I took this in February of 2011 with my LX3. The Varsity sports some of the last neon left in town. I think there was about twice as much neon a decade ago as there is now in Ashland. At some point I imagine it will all be gone.

Between innings at the OSU vs. UofO game a couple weekends ago, the cameraman turned the TV camera from the field to the stands to capture this baby. The dad thought it would be a good idea to take the bottle from the baby and then bring the bottle to the camera’s direction. This was the result.

Southern Oregon University Dogwood blossoms
Like all of the other flowering plants and trees this year, the dogwoods in front of Central Hall blossomed early. Today’s photo is from late April, and the dogwoods don’t normally look like this until May 10 or so. They are long gone now.

Ashland High School baseball pitcher Jamie Flynn throwing during Round 1 of the 2013 OSAA 5A Baseball State Championship Tournament
I was hoping to watch some baseball today at North Mountain Park. Ashland earned a number 1 seed which meant home games through the semifinals of the state tournament (should they win their games). Alas, Wednesday’s game did not go as planned, and the Grizzlies were upset by number 8 seed Madison. Rain fell through most of the game, and things did not go Ashland’s way in the 4-1 loss. The tournament is single elimination so the season is now over for the AHS Grizzlies.
