Ah, the simple things. After Saturday’s Central Community College graduation at Grand Island Senior High, Kahne Rempe, 4, of ... http://www.grandislandblogs.com/indyphotogs/?p=47 Hard to go wrong with a pie-throwing contest. What an expression. As the wall behind her portrays the peril of previous pies, Dodge Elementary counselor Henri Glatter screams as yet another pie is thrown at her at the pie throwing station during the school’s field day on Thursday. As school ... http://www.grandislandblogs.com/indyphotogs/?p=46 There's just something about a cowboy hat that looks cool. Plus, I like the way the boy's hat and rope fall in the shadow and really jump out as a result. Centura student Nolan Wetzel practices his roping skills during the Centura FFA’s annual Barnyard event. http://www.grandislandblogs.com/indyphotogs/?p=45 Sometimes it's just fun to be where something amazing happens, like a huge upset victory during the $75,000 Bosselman/Gus Fonner Stakes. The upset is thought to be one of the biggest ever at Fonner Park with the long shot defeating the favorite. The horses running through the rain soaked turf ... http://www.grandislandblogs.com/indyphotogs/?p=44 It wasn't just a lucky day for this race fan who's cheering as her horse rides by after winning a race on a rainy day at Fonner Park, it was lucky for me too.

The photos are all details from downtown Grand Island. This sign is from a business that, at one time, sold adding machines and typewriters. Life is always evolving, what was once cutting edge is now ... http://www.grandislandblogs.com/indyphotogs/?p=41 While some Civil War re-enactors spoke to Walnut Middle School students, I saw this one reflected in the American flag.

Bender, who was leading the race didn't finish, while Jesse Bartels of Heartland Lutheran (right) avoided a ... http://www.grandislandblogs.com/indyphotogs/?p=39 As his tie blows in a strong wind, Lt. Gov. Rick Sheehy is framed in the front door window as he arrives at Wood River Rural High School. I didn't see the marks on the window that the auto-focus sensor picked up, but I  like the way it looks anyway. http://www.grandislandblogs.com/indyphotogs/?p=38 While on another assignment, I saw this lad playing with the falling snow with an umbrella.
