Fantastic pics everyone... it's good to see them up here so quickly! I have taken about 1500 shots, many close-up but I won't be uploading them until I get home. And... it'll be a looong process, to pick out the best ones! More power to those who can post pics quickly for everyone to see, since we won't be home until Tuesday night. Thanks again... it takes the pressure off of me! LOL
Our GA group sat in the section right next to the Awards podiums. In the pic of Allison Baver, we were closest to her side and I was seated about 10-12 feet away from her. I was able to get many close-up shots of our Gold-medal winning men's team... AND I got several pics of Charles Ryan... with huge smiles!!! Wow, he should smile more often! All the guys were smiling, laughing and just having a great time - basking in the glory of the Gold-Medal win!
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Oh - those shots of the relay are stupendous! Thank you!
They wanted that BAD and nailed it. It was so cool at the end after everyone else had basically left the ice, the US guys were just in the middle skating around a bit and commiserating and savoring the moment. They are amazing. Period.
