My son's first soccer game today. This was actually before the game during warmups (the part that didn't rain). I got some great shots of the game but had to pack up the gear after about 10 mins due to the rain. I actually tried to cover the 40D which isn't weather protected and left the 70-200 F4L exposed, which is. It's amazing that I was able to watch his game, we were remarking that it is the first sport he's played where I am not his coach (I know nothing of Soccer so I wouldn't be much of a help there).
As I type this, Tropical Storm Hanna is testing out my drainage project, so far I think it is working quite well. So well, in fact, that I thought we hadn't gotten too much rain since there are only minimal puddles forming near our garage. That was, until I saw the back of our garage (which still leaks until I fix our gutter).
