My mom ran two half marathons this year - the Chinatown Firecracker Run in February and the Laguna Hills Half Marathon in May. Of course, as her wonderful, loving son, I went to support her and take photos. ;-)
I don't think she's in this one... she started toward the back.
Here she is in Laguna Hills.

Kathy and I went up to Malibu to check out a potential wedding site one weekend. We're glad we did, because it was a lot smaller than it looked in the pictures. Not wanting to waste the trip, we headed down to the beach to take some pictures by the pier.
As I was figuring out poses and lighting this guy came up to us and offered to take our picture. I refused at first, but as he started talking it became apparent that he was a professional photographer.
So I gave him my camera and let him pose us. The pictures turned out great!
Afterward, I took a few more of Kathy on the other side of the pier. I'm pretty happy with how those turned out, too.
For Heather's birthday we went to K1 Speed in Carlsbad. I was racing, but Pi'ilani took some awesome pictures.
Towards the end of the race, I got a lucky break -- Heather (whom I had been trailing for ten laps) got stuck behind someone who had spun out, so I ended up taking first.
It's a puzzle!
