Wish I could make it.

We had pretty heavy rain over the weekend and RFK was always notorious for drying out slowly when the Redskins played there. You might get some cool shots of outfielders slippin' and slidin'.

Major ROFL! Yup the old Expos, now we got them and you don't.

What has become of Olympic Stadium? I thought that was a neat place if you could get over the idea of playing baseball indoors.

too bad, harv--there might be a front-page shot out there somewhere ;-)

yeah, pidge, the washington expos just didn't ring right with the marketing folks...

anyone else? clara?

I thought this one was front page material -

And I really liked this one -

But this one got a better reception here at dpc, especially with the women -

BTW great shots, I'm envious that you get to go to the games and shoot!
