Dance off

Going into a charity basketball game this evening, I never thought I’d end up with a frame like this. I was pleasantly surprised at what I think was a impromptu dance off between a couple of Cheyenne East students during halftime.

The Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar made a stop in Cheyenne today to announce new coal leases in the state. He spoke at Cheyenne South High School.

Knut, famous German polar bear, dies at Berlin zoo

I was a bit surprised to learn that the U-Bahn (subway) out to the Berlin Zoological Garden to see the famous polar bear cub. It was a rainy day and I remember spending several minutes wandering around the vast zoo looking for the biggest attraction, but eventually found the celebrity.
