A city council election is upon us once again. We've had plenty to say in the past, but let's get real, not enough of us vote in this election even though it is one of the most important to our daily lives. As if the voter turnout wasn't bad enough in other elections, it's basically non-existent in municipal elections.

What We Did is our weekly roundup of a few of the best photos that have been tagged with #WDDI in the past week on Instagram.
We broke our self-imposed rule this week and added a few more pictures than normal. Y'all just took so many awesome photos last week, that our hands were forced. This week, we have 21 beautiful images from the past seven days of life in Denton, TX featuring the likes of Touch-a-Truck, the Color Run, TEDxTWU, and much more.
If you'd like to be included in What We Did, tag your images with #WDDI on Instagram, and check back here next week. In the meantime, search the hashtag #WDDI and check out all of the other awesome photos that we were unable to include this week. We're getting close to 30,000 all-time-tags and we would like to narrow that gap very soon.

What We Did is our weekly roundup of photos that WDDI staff and readers have taken over the past seven days. It's our excuse to talk about the weather, local sports teams, and the like. you can bet your ass that we're going to talk about the weather this week. We did have a flipping tornado, after all. And we aren't the only ones talking about the weather this (strangely) sunny morning. In fact, a good percentage of your tagged photos were weather-related because Denton is full of amateur storm chasers. So we hope you like dramatic skies and whatnot.
If you'd like to be included in What We Did, tag your images with #WDDI on Instagram, and check back here next Monday. As always, we're limited in the photos we can post, but we encourage you to search the hashtag #WDDI and check out all of the other awesome photos that were posted that we were unable to post on the blog.
