PM sent. Gallery Place is where the Red Line crosses Yellow and Green lines. Metro Center, the stop before, is Red, Orange and Blue. And no large lenses, probably nothing bigger than 70-200 or 70-300. Just lots of them.

I'm figuring on getting down there around 1 at the Gallery Place Metro exit on 7th and H, depending on how soon I can get my wife and sister there, and moving back along the parade route starting around 1:30 before setting up at 7th and I around 2-ish. Based on last year, they form up along I and 6th Sts for a starting point at 6th and I. Along I to 7th, down 7th to around F, up 8th or 9th to G, across G to 7th and back up to H, where they finish under the Friendship Arch.

SuzyView Cream of the Crop  More info | Jim! Great Shots! I have a cold and couldn't go. I caught my son's cold, like usual, at the exact wrong time. Jon looks good and I would have loved the parade and the hot chocolate at Starbucks. Oh well. Catch you at the cherry blossoms. Suzie - Still Speaking Canonese!

Red, lots of red. It was cold and windy. Oh, that's too bad. It looks like they didn't clean up the ice well either. Suzie, Jim -- I keep the Leica D-Lux 7 in the Glove Box just in case!

SuzyView Cream of the Crop More info | Feb 18, 2007 17:14 | #37 Great shots, Jon. I just saw Jim's thread. I apologize again for not attending. I think I caught my son's cold and have been cold and tired all day. We even had short church meetings today because the parking lot was so bad. I hope to catch you later in the spring. I also don't do well in ice. I fall just looking at it. Suzie - Still Speaking Canonese!

SuzyView Cream of the Crop More info | Feb 18, 2007 18:36 | #41 Let's get another gathering planned. The icy conditions made it not so fun. What do you think about meeting again at the Air & Space in late winter? It's a great place to shoot and I haven't been there in a while. We can see if they hung the Global Flyer up somewhere.
