My evening at camp

So while I was visiting some friends I had a chance to go to a camp and watch a crazy wide game.

Kind of like what happens when you mix capture the flag and football, along with some really zealous acting. It was great fun!!

At the end the "War Chiefs" battled individually!

Then everyone went down to the water.

And had to wash off the battle paint!

It was great fun! I learned a fair bit about how to make pictures in lower light too....

Scott Kelby Photowalk and some unrelated concerns)

Here are some of the photos from my involvement in the 2nd Annual Scott Kelby Worldwide Photowalk. I had hoped to work on these a little more but have been unable to. In time I will add more pictures and perhaps rework these ones.

The reason I haven't been able to do much is that my wife's Aund and Uncle have been evacuated from their home in West Bank, British Columbia. West Bank and the western part of Kelowna are in flames from a 200+ hectare forest fire that started yesterday. The fire is (as of right now) still uncontained and authorities are evacuating more and more people. There are even rumblings that this fire might be bigger than the fire in 2003.

There are some pictures on one of the Kelowna news websites of them evacuating Les & Shirley here. They are featured in the second and third photos. If you're the praying type, please do so.

Another day at the beach

So we went to the beach again today. Great time. The pictures I'm posting here are less about the kids and more about some things that caught my eye and imagination a little. So here they are:

kids in a van

so I said "be angry" (Olivia is actually laughing)

so then I said stick out your tongue
