Had our annual Madrid Softball Tournament I was there taken pictures of the action. I missed the Memorial Weekend game as I was in Alaska, a number of players asked why I missed it. These are just a few of the hundreds I took.
Here are a few pictures I have recently taken.
On the 4th I will be filming the Madrid 4th of July parade.
Summer is melting away rapidly as we move from July to August. Almost time for my second PSA Test and the dreaded hormone shot. The temperature has dropped from the 100"s to the mid-nineties, quite a relief.
Many things have been going on this summer. I continues to show and sell my work at the gallery, Mostly Madrid, in Madrid New Mexico. Have met some interesting people wandering through.
Madrid Miners, our local softball team played in a Tournament in June. Here are a few shots of the game.
Unfortunately, our team did not make to the finals.
Madrid is always up for a parade. This is the He/She Bang, theatrical group preparing a float for the Pride Parade. Plus a few pictures of some of the participants.
Which brings our to the next Parade on the 4th of July.
The next weekend I was a volunteer at the, International Folk Artist Market. Such a good experience, meeting a chatting with artist from around the world.
Bought this vest from Guatemala.
The lady on the left spins the yarn, the other lady does the weavings.
This, Heart, was a gift from one of the ladies I cashiered for.
July 22nd, Eva's birthday, may she rest in peace.
So that brings us to the present. I am preparing to leave for Alaska in the middle of August and will be returning at the end of September. That should cool me off a bit. My house sitter will be here in a few days, so I can train her on how to operate the solar system, watering system and how to heat the wood-burning Hot Tub, among other things.
These are a few images I have captured this summer.
