During the week of July 5-9, 2011, Cary and I were privileged to attend "The Opening", watching quarterback grandson Tyler Matthews (#43 the first day, and #15 on game days) play with 150 of the best high school football players in the United States. The event was held at Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. I hope that you enjoy the pictures ... some are better photos than others, but I tried to capture as many kids as I could.
There are approximately 500 photos in these slide shows. They are of the players, the fans, our family and everybody/everything that caught my eye. They are in chronological order. No names are on the pictures, even if I do know who people were.
As time permits, I will also be writing blog posts about my experience as a spectator. Since I still have a lot to learn about football and this is not a sports blog, I'll write some human interest stories as seen through my eyes. That said, Tyler Matthews, YOU ROCK!!!!

Nice shots - it looks like quite a tangle there! The only time I've ever been in Oregon is the day we spent in Portland, but I'd love to spend more time there.
Too bad there has to be so many of them in front of that pretty blue sky. I guess if we want things to "run", the power lines come with it. Hope you are having a great weekend. They come and go so fast!!!! Mickie :)
It is tempting to grouse about the tangle till we go to our climate controlled home and switch on the lights. Aahhh.
Thanks, you guys. I like these pictures because of all the straight lines made from different textures ... the powerlines, the concrete and the buildings made of brick. Not much of anything soft, unless you count the lady in the backpack.
These pictures are so interesting and quirky beautiful with the power lines. I've left an award for you on my blog. I'm a little late with notifications so here is the link http://melissasimaginarium.blogspot.com/2011/12/thank-you.html
