I’m sitting in cool, wonderful Morro Bay, where not only is it cool, but the internet is SOO much faster. I remembered I owed you some muster photos, so without further ado … (no comments, or names, just photos. Okay, a few silly comments.)

Okay, so the internet is only a little faster, and I don’t have time to load a whole bunch, so a few more now, and a few more later.

And no editing on any of these. What you see is what you get. Some of us have to work for a living.

We all know this guy, don’t we? He’s the guy behind our new fire chief.

And here’s to the woman behind our retiring chief (not the one above, he’s got another fabulous woman behind him!)

There she is, on the left.

And food. Did I mention the food? Lots and lots of food.

The man of the hour — giving an interview.

That’s the line for the food. A long, l-o-n-g line. There were lots of us.

And what’s a muster, without some mustering?

Go to it, boys!!

I’ve got lots more photos, but I rarely seem to get around to Round 2. There are always other things to report, other photos to take. But I’ll try. No promises, but I’ll try.

A group shot I meant to include. Photographers shooting photographers, again.

Those of you who know me, know I am a hat lady. I cannot resist a good hat, or a photo of it.

And red hats are my favorites!

I shot in both jpg and raw. Those close-ups of people in jpg were too saturated, and the skin tones not right, so I posted the raw ones. Of groups or the muster, the saturation was just about right, so I used the jpg ones. You can tell the differences. As I said, these are straight out of the camera, I didn’t have time for editing, and one can tell. I am always learning.
