Sunday Six: Week 42

Another Recap Six this week, all from over the weekend.


Saturday afternoon was the annual Little Five Points Halloween Fest. The festival includes a big parade with lots of people dressed up. It's not just the paraders who are in costume, a lot of people in the crowd are too. This is a shot of one area of the crowd. It was like this a majority of the parade route. There were people everywhere!


One of the local haunted houses and their parade float.


I ended up walking along with some friends on their float. We had a mix of costumes. Here's a cowboy and Alex from "A Clockwork Orange." We also had a pirate, two more as different versions of Alex, and President Ronald Reagan.


Also at the parade was this guy dressed up as Snow White. If you've never been to Little Five Points in Atlanta . . . it's a very unique place.


Last night Allison and I went to the Falcons/Bears game. It was lots of fun!


The Falcons play in a dome. This is part of a support column. I thought the angles were interesting.

Until next week . . .

Not a typical crowd picture, but that's okay. This was taken at Atlanta Falcons Training Camp. Once practice was over the players huddled together to form this small crowd.

50:50

My teams were 50:50 last night.

Tennessee was defeated by Cal in what I suppose was a decent game. Both defenses gave up points, but Tennessee's defense hadn't given up this many in a long time. Let's just hope they do better next week against Southern Mississippi. Then, it's onto Gainesville and those awful Florida Gators!

The good spot in sports last night? Let me illustrate with a picture:



Clay Buchholz, who was called up by Boston just a few hours before the Baltimore game, threw a no-hitter last night in his second major league start! Final game score was 10-0! This is such a good thing for the Red Sox, especially after being swept by the Yankees and that near win over the O's Friday night. I hope this will boost them through September! 22 wins and the AL East belongs to us!

*T-E-NN-E-SS-EE . . . Tennessee!

I'm headed to Tennessee for the weekend. Mom and Dad will get to see my new truck. I had to wash it today so it would be nice and pretty. Saturday we're going to a surprise birthday party. Also, Saturday is 12 of 12, so instead of a work day you'll get to see where I grew up. Small town anyone? However, it will be at least Sunday night before I get to post them. Mom's still living in the land of dial up internet, at least at the house.

The 12 of 12 bonus word for the month is "Dreamscapes." I'm trying to figure out what sort of picture I'm going to take.

See you all when I make it back to Atlanta!

*The title is based on a Tennessee cheer that is heard at every game. I love my Tennessee Vols -- can't wait until football season starts!
