Madwag Memorial Spring Open Pictures

[Dan]

I took my new pocket digital to the Madwags Memorial, and wouldn't you know it had to drizzle off an on all day. Actually, the weather was quite good, but it made me hesitant to drag the camera out of the rainsuit to take very many on the water pictures.
If any of you have any fish pics from the water, I'd like to have some to post. My email is dshinebassman@yahoo.com. If you want any of these pics that are "full strength" send me an email, and I'll send them to you. To post pics on the web, you have to reduce their size, which reduces the number of pixels. They'll look good on the computer, but won't make a good print. That's why if you want to make a print you'll want the "full strength" pictures.
I'll have to make several post to get the pictures up. I took many more pics, but just picked out these to post. I'll send DK all of them, so he'll have an archive set.
Thanks to everyone who help pull this biggest ever event off. It was a lot of fun!

Looks like a good time was had by all.  Sorry again that I couldn't make it.  Family and soccer comes first.  Alec had a great day on the soccer field and because we couldn't make it he dedicated his day on the field in memory of MadWags.  For the day and two games Alec had a goal and 4 assists.  He put together some plays that could be destined for Sportscenter.  Wags would have been proud.

One of these days, I am going to make on of these MadWags Memorial Opens.
