Local almost-thirty somethings still hanging around

By Griff Wigley, on October 9, 2008, 2:28 pm

I just remembered I have a bunch of photos from the Defeat of Jesse James Days that I’ve not yet posted. I did post a 2008 DJJD Kiddie Parade album but then dropped the ball. I do have many more photos from that weekend which I’ll get to… Real Soon Now.

But in the meantime, here are a couple of photos from the Cow on Sept. 6.

Who are these unruly almost-thirty somethings? (Please don’t make me go to Facebook to find out.)
