Tour of AT&T Park, Part 1

In the Bay Area for a second time in three months but with more time in San Francisco this go-around, I took a morning off from WWDC and went on a tour of AT&T Park. This set of photos start in the lobby, passing by the KNBR offices, and making our way up to the View Level.

The Ginger Man – Austin, Part 2

With a few beers in me, it seemed like a good time to take a walk around The Ginger Man.

The Ginger Man – Austin, Part 1

After arriving in Austin and ducking into my hotel room to drop off my bag (and to cool off from the oppressive heat), my first stop was at the Austin outpost of The Ginger Man chain. The Texas locations used to be affiliated with the ones on the east coast (same owners), including the one in Midtown New York, but the original owners sold off all their pubs outside of Texas. Still, once you walk in, you know where the NYC one got their look from.

Big Top Candy Shop, Part 2

After getting some photos of the walls inside the Big Top Candy Shop, let’s get to what you really want to see – the candy.

Big Top Candy Shop, Part 1

While down in Austin, I was lured to the Big Top Candy Shop by the promise of chocolate covered bacon. Before I walked away with the bounty I sought, I took a couple of photos of the classic candy shop interior.

Fun in Baltimore

In July 2004, I went with a couple of friends on a trip to Baltimore for Otakon.

Melbourne Beach

After making the long (due to traffic) drive from Orlando to Melbourne, we hit the beach to take in the view before dinner.

Braves Spring Training, Part 3

This final set of photos from Braves spring training takes a look at the crowd and at some of the marquee (in my mind) players. As you can tell from this first shot, taken while looking to the left of my seat, it’s remarkably packed for a Thursday afternoon game.

Braves Spring Training, Part 2

After taking a few photos behind home plate, I started to make my way around Champions Stadium, getting a few shots of the field from the first base side and from right field. Also pictured is a busy Braves bullpen as they kept getting pitchers up and ready; after all, this is a spring training game.

Braves Spring Training, Part 1

Back in early March of this year, Aaron, Justin, and I went down to Florida for a few days to check out spring training. Aaron and I got there early in the afternoon, hours before Justin would arrive, got our rental car, and drove straight to Disney World to catch the Braves at their spring training home. They were hosting the Venezuelan World Baseball Classic team that afternoon.
