Yeah, this is super old...back in February. But hey, I capped it so I'm posting them. :P
Pretty sucky looking caps, but there was a lot of camera movement. Blame Misha! LOL
Boys being crafty!!! Hee!

Another very old set of caps from an old video. Heh.
This is from Feb. 28, 2016 when the YANA campaign was wrapping up (and being extended one day).



( Caps be this way... )

Remember when Jared, Jensen, Misha, & Rob all got together in Jensen's trailer to watch 11x17 "Red Meat" live? Yep, I've got caps of it. Here's Jared's video & caps. Jensen's will be posted tomorrow. ;)



NOTE: These caps are small (only 360x360) and not the best quality, but I did what I could to improve them.

Btw, since I've been having trouble with people viewing the images/caps in my posts, I'm doing a little experiment. This post was made using the Google Chrome browser. Please let me know if you can see the caps. Thx! :)

I made some caps from an old FB Live video by Jensen & Misha and a few got deleted during the sorting process. But instead of just getting rid of them, I thought I'd make some collages. *g*

Finally got my Hi-Quality photos from VanCon backed up overnight. Sorted through them and deleted over 1,000 of them. :P Hey, blurry and bad photos happen. But there's plenty of good ones! LOVE it when my photography mojo works! :D

I posted these to Twitter, too, but here's the preview shots I saved.

It was interesting to have a panel with just Rob & Matt without Rich there (love ya, Rich!). The two of them really had a love fest with each other, which they admitted Richard would never let them get away with. Awww. lol And yeah, I sort of got a shot of Matt doing his stage leap. It's blurry, but hey, skin! And he got so high because he jumped off one of the chairs, but still...impressive. Then it was time for Misha's panel with some dancing with Briana & Kim and then chatting with Rob.

These were taken with my smaller Canon camera and are not the greatest quality. My normal practice is to take a few shots with this camera at the beginning of each panel or whatever and then switch to my bigger Canon camera for the rest. And sadly, I was having a lot of trouble finding the right settings for the smaller camera this time around. I don't know if it was the lighting they were using or what. A lot of these photos have been fixed by me because they were so dark and/or had an orange color cast. The fixed ones have an "x" at the end of the filename. There's a lot of blurriness, too, but I took out the worst offenders. There's a few good gems here and there though. Hopefully, you'll still find these pics enjoyable. :)

During my little time out I did cap this latest promo from the CW, featuring our boys from SPN and lots of others. This time I pretty much capped the entire video, so all the shows featured are well represented. If you just want the set of SPN caps, you can grab the zipped folder. Enjoy! :)

YESSSSSSS!!!!!! All that voting worked!
We've done it yet again, fandom. Bravo! Don't the boys look sexy all laid back on top of the Impala? And in Henleys no less! *drools* I kinda feared Gilmore Girls would win instead, but I kept on voting and putting my faith in our fandom. We still have the power!!!

And you gotta love how EW put a little moose & squirrel in the letters on the cover. Cute!!! Even Jensen noticed & tweeted about it. Nice little Easter Egg that only the SPN Family will get and appreciate. Can't wait to pick up one of these later in the week!

It’s official: #Supernatural won the #EWCoverBattle for their first-ever EW cover! https://t.co/4EFps0A1Xs 😱 #EWxSPN pic.twitter.com/O31yJvrNvP

Check out the awesome video of the photo shoot as well (yes, I will be capping it soon!). All the guys showing appreciation for the fans. ♥ :D

Ah, Sunday! The day of days! J2 Day!
And sadly, the last day of an amazing weekend. *le sigh*

But let's talk about the good stuff, shall we? :)

The day began with the J2 Gold Panel. This is the main reason I keep going Gold every year. This panel is always fun and special (like when Jensen joined Twitter!) and just that added time with the guys that you can't get any other way. I don't remember all the questions, but there were some good ones asked and some funny stories from Jensen & Jared. See, this is why I always rely on youtube videos of panels. :P

Next was photo-ops with J2. People used to ask me what the guys smell like during photo-ops. Honestly, I usually can't remember and this year really isn't any different. They just smell clean. Nice. There's obviously some cologne or aftershave there, but I don't know what it is. You're standing there next to them or being hugged by them so briefly that it's tough to take it all in, especially when you're remembering to smile, breathe, and in my case, have your head angled right so there's no glare off your glasses.

One thing I do remember from my photo-op with Jensen is that "Flowers On The Wall" by the Statler Brothers was playing at the time. One of my favorite songs and one of those surprise songs that Chris sticks on his playlist. I think Jensen might have remembered me after all these years of attending VanCon. When I walked up he smiled at me warmly and said, "Hi! How are you doing?" Just like he was greeting an old friend. At least that's the feeling I got. :) I said I was doing great and we hugged for the photo. I looked up into his face, smiled and thanked him as I always do. I'm very happy with the photo, which I can't say some years. Full smile, a hug...what more can a fangirl ask for? :)

Part of the fun of photo-ops is watching the people before you in line getting theirs. While in line for the J2 photo out in the hall, I got to watch them have a little refreshment break and Jensen was trying to corral the straw with his tongue and then they both bopped and drank to the beat of the music. Silly boys! Then just before I had my photo taken with them, this young girl had Jared hug her while Jensen was supposed to be drawing them in a sketchbook. Thing was after the photo, Jensen stood there and kept on drawing. Pretty soon Jared motioned over to us standing in line like, "What is he doing? We've got people waiting???" LOL But Jensen kept on going a little more and then handed the girl his finished drawing. Would love to see what he drew!

I got the usual sandwich shot with the guys, hugging Jensen with Jared behind me. They were standing on opposite sides from how they normally do, so the photo is a little different. And boy did they squeeze me!!! Felt like my bones were getting crushed! LOL But it was all good. I know to expect that now. ;) I thanked them, making sure to look at Jared as I walked away. They're both so sweet! :D

Jared's photo is always so easy. I just walk up and get a hug and we're done. Usually, he winks at me after the photo, but this time I got it before! Ooooooh! Aw, Jared! You charmer, you! :D I totally felt his face against the top part of my head....*guh* And he still gives the sweetest hugs!

After all that loving, hugging, touching, and swooning it was time for the panels to begin.

Things were running a little late, namely Misha....so Kim & Briana, & Rob proceeded to kill time by having an impromptu interview with a cardboard cutout of Castiel, with Rob providing Misha's voice as the girls asked him questions. Well, soon it picked up on the Porncouver theme of the con and they were making out with the cardboard Misha/Castiel. It was hilarious. Raunchy, yes. Inappropriate...err, yes, but still funny. Briana totally made out with the cutout on the floor. :P Anyway, Misha eventually appeared, not knowing what had happened or how frenzied the antics of the others had made the audience. Poor Misha...some of the questions were referencing what Briana, Kim, and Rob had done and he was totally clueless. It was funny, but then the last question crossed the line and was totally inappropriate. Luckily, the rest of them came out and pretty much ended the panel right there. Misha finally figured out what debauchery had happened to his cardboard cutout and then it all made sense to him. Misha handled it all pretty well, though. What a trouper!

And then....the boys!!!! What a fun panel they had! Good questions from the audience and some wickedly funny stuff from the guys. They were seated so close to each other for most of the panel, too. Great for photo-taking! I was snapping off so many photos at such a rapid pace that I filled up my memory card right near the end and had to quickly put in another to catch the final moments of the panel. I shudder to think of how many photos I took...which is a good problem to have. :P

More down time as photo-ops were taking place and then an hour later we had our last panel with Rob. Somehow he got asked a question which led to him telling how he lost his virginity (in 40 seconds!). He was so embarrassed by the end, wondering why he told us all of that! Sure enough, by the end of the panel, Kim & Briana came out on stage and Briana said she'd already seen a video on Twitter of Rob telling the story. He thought she was kidding at first, but then she mentioned the 40 seconds!!! Rob just stood there and looked at the audience and said he should be really angry at us, but he was actually kind of proud. LOL Ah, the internet and fandom is a powerful and fast combination!

After that there was the autograph session with Jensen & Jared, re-upping for next year, and saying goodbye to friends. It's always sad when Sunday is over. You don't want it to end. The weekend that seemed to go by slowly at first is all of a sudden over and your left with only wonderful memories. *sigh*

I've got an epic story about my Jensen & Jared autographs, so I'm putting that in a separate post.

A little blast from the past...Love how Misha's all serious ('cause he can't see what Jensen's doing, I guess?) while Jared's smiling (and looking very hot in that single layer) with Jensen checking the sharpness of that knife. *g*
