State update - a major step forward

Yes, I know, only 15 checkmarks so far.  But now comes a less difficult if still time consuming task, which is purging the match photographs.  Those not yet purged photos are now in folders indicating the divisions, weight classes, rounds and name of competitors.  There were thousands of photos to sort, so I am giving myself another checkmark for that, because that is a big step.    

Just for fun, I'll share a few photos as post pages, lest I rant about the semifinals again.

The Louisiana Wrestling News crew at Red Lobster which, due to the fact that it took over three hours for five people to be served, will probably be replaced by the Outback Steakhouse next to my hotel in 2024.

The first photo is of Emily watching Anna try her Lobsterita.  The second is Jonathan, Emily and Anna next to what appears to b a corpse.  The third is former LWN photographer Anthony Benedetto

 

DIII, 2x DI DIII & DI DIII, DII & DI DII & DI
What is with this mixing of kids from different divisions?  In my day we had separate gymnasiums at Baker until the finals, which were both held the the Baker boys gym, and the Division II finals were held before the Division I finals.  (I was sucking beer from a pitcher out of a straw at Murphy's before the Division I 98 lbs. finals started.)  Are we THAT woke?  (Is that a correct circumstance to use "woke?"  I really do not know.  I recall a day when a CNN reporter woke me up by saying "take a listen."  Nothing make sense any more. 

* NOTE: Michael Roach sent me the photo of Tyson Roach and Landon Reaux on February 14th.  I did not find it until May 6th when I was deleting old emails.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP ARTICLE PROGRESS

Progress?  Still just photos work for now.

A red check mark indicates the photos have been chosen and edited for that particular weight class or section.  The number of photos for each section are in parentheses.
