uptown walking + equinox drumming

Okay. Here's a question that I don't really care about the answer to. What's the difference between "uptown" and "downtown"? Is there really a proper way to refer to different parts of MYTOWN? ppffft. Whatever. I always call it downtown, and that's fine with me. Right, which brings me to the point. Got off work early tonight and heading downtown for the Trade & Tryon equinox drumming circle madness WITH my camera (and the 10mm). Decided to park a bit far away in order to get some quality time with the streets and buildings. And. I must say. It was. Pretty. Damn. Awesome. I was quite surprised at what I could do with iso1600. Verrrry very cool.

Meh. Getting tired, so here's the short version: I eventually arrived at T&T for the craziness. Danielle showed up a few minutes later. Took lots of pictures. Kelly, a new friend of Danielle's (from Sangati/Asana) showed up a few minutes after that with a friend (Katie). We drummed some. Four youngish, laughing/silly, probably-intoxicated guys showed up and proceeded to dance in and out of and all around the circle. It was pretty awesome. Afterwards, Kelly and Katie did a bit of yoga while some dude took pictures with a point and shoot from really far away (haha) and I did teeny bit of cartwheelin. Good times. Here them pics.
