Fluff Piece

Sorry for the bad pun. We're having our first week of nice weather in Columbia and while eating lunch in the park, someone brought over a bucket (literally a bucket) full of puppies. Everyone swarmed.

Enjoy some photos.

A Colorful Week

Last week ended up being a rather slow week for shooting, but every time that I did bring out the camera, there was plenty of color. River's ran green, firetrucks were pink, Mozart was teal, and there was the red, white and blue of a Texas flag. This is what the Missourian was like over the last 10 days.

The truck is based out of Kansas City and run by Guardians of the Ribbon, a group of firefighters supporting women with cancer. It has been painted pink and on the road since September 2010.

Thousands of signatures cover the JennieLee. Notes from the hubcaps to the bumpers are both in memory of those who have died of cancer and in support of those currently fighting cancer.
