Lazurus lives!

Climbing off his death bed, everyone’s favorite camera clicker, John Fisken, staggered down to Coupeville and ignored being sick long enough to snap a ton of pics at this afternoon’s CHS Homecoming parade.

Next time you see him (if we didn’t just put him in the hospital…), maybe buy the guy a Diet Coke to say thanks.

   Since I don’t have a ton of dress-related photos, a fresh pic of CHS spikers (l to r) Emma Smith, Payton Aparicio, Lauren Rose and Ally Roberts, who have all been known to wear dresses from time to time. (John Fisken photo)

Dress fever grips the nation.

We sit two weeks out from ye olde annual Coupeville High School Homecoming dance and the race is on to obtain garments for said night.

Enter the queen of the haberdashery, the titan of teal, the Tim Gunn of Cow Town, Amy Briscoe.

The mom of CHS spikers Tiffany and Kyla Briscoe, who also doubles as a reasonably-priced dress merchant in her work with My Fairy Godmother, is back at it.

Briscoe (and her 2,709 dresses) will be camped out in the school’s commons area Sept. 30-Oct. 1 (next Friday and Saturday) from 12-6 PM, making with the Homecoming dress rental.

Cost is just $20 (a steal, I say) and Briscoe offers a dazzling variety of styles and sizes.

You can also bring in a formal dress and slice $10 off the rental fee. Thrifty and fashion forward.

Or, maybe, she’s just watching her classmates go bonkers.

They arrived, in all shapes, sizes and ages.

Wolf fans crammed the bleachers, the sidelines and every nook and cranny at Mickey Clark Field Friday night.

They were there for a football game, for Homecoming festivities and to enjoy a relatively balmy October night under the lights.

Capturing the action, before he skedaddled for Oak Harbor and another football game, was travelin’ photo man John Fisken, who delivers unto us the pics above.

Go, marinate in the pictorial excellence. We’ll talk more later.

It was a quiet Friday, until a parade went and broke out.

Keeping alive the revived tradition of having a big, dramatic Homecoming parade wend its ways through town before the big game, Coupeville High School got festive in the sunshine.

Snapping away for those of us who weren’t there was rovin’ camera man John Fisken, who provides us with the pics above.

P.S. — Game time is 5:30 PM tonight at Mickey Clark Field. Beat Chimacum and the Wolves clinch a playoff berth.

Today’s the day.

Homecoming fever sweeps through Cow Town, plus there’s a playoff spot on the line.

Festivities hit the open road with a parade through town that kicks off at 2:40 PM.

Said parade goes down Terry Road, then winds itself along S. Main and N. Main before heading for the waterfront and back.

The football game — a battle between Coupeville (1-5) and Chimacum (0-6) — kicks off at Mickey Clark Field at 5:30.

Win and the Wolves clinch a playoff spot, while keeping their hopes of finishing as high as second in the 1A Olympic League alive.
