I got nothing to do and all day to do it

More time for pictures, at last: from the furmeet at the Brighton Arcade last month.

People all suited up and gathering to head outside for group photos.

---

Everyone's favorite imminent hazard: fursuiters on stairs.

---

I didn't quite have the exposure right, but at least you can see that bunnyhugger and I weren't the only people masking.

---

Still more of the procession down the stairs, as I've said, a longer fursuit parade than Anthrocon had its first four years.

---

Folks gathering together for the group photo and to try not getting bumped into by cars trying to get in or out of the lot.

---

And people gather, deciding whether they're in fursuit enough to be photographed or just holding camera enough to be a photographer.

Trivia: Chase, a township in Lake County, Michigan, was settled in 1862 and named after Salmon P Chase. It was initially named Grendale, though clerical error had the town named Green Dell. (The renaming came with its post office in 1872.)

Currently Reading: Miscellaneous comic books that a friend sent. Also catching up on three days' worth of comics because I haven't had time.
