This week marked the beginning of school (the bike path on the way to work is much more crowded), and the return of fall sports.

Tidings freelance photographer Larry Stauth has been out capturing photo galleries of some of the games:

Ashland High boys soccer vs. Klamath Falls 

Ashland High football vs. Henley 

Faces in the Crowd: AHS football vs. Henley

And for SOU football fans, Raiders vs. Mountaineers

In other recent photo galleries, we have Remembering 9-11, a small gallery of photos of the 9-11 remembrance held this morning at the Ashland Fire & Rescue Headquarters.

Tidings correspondent Mandy Valencia spent the start of the month in the Nevada desert, attending the Burning Man festival. Check out the crazy art pieces in her photo gallery.

Mandy also followed up her highly-viewed Mandy on the Street: Public Nudity in Ashland video with Mandy on the Street: Psychics.

So that’s a quick roundup of some of the new media on www.dailytidings.com. And if you’re looking to show some school spirit, we still have some Grizzly T-shirts available. Join ConnectAshland and leave a comment for me, Kira, about why you want a Grizzlies T. (As I post this, ConnectAshland.com is down for maintenance, but it's supposed to be back up soon.)
