Sorry, no photos from me today. Was sick and couldn't go (first missed home game in 10 years). Luckily it won't be my last chance to shoot the @washingtonspirit.com so that's awesome. See y'all next week with more photos.

Tomorrow will be my last regular season game shooting the @washingtonspirit.com. I've decided after 10 seasons and (so far) 137 games that it's time to be just a fan again. It's been truly amazing and with any luck that number will get up to 140 games before I'm done. See you at Rowdy Audi!
