To the hoop!!


College Park, Md., Thursday Oct. 16--Spent the afternoon covering the University of Maryland's mens basketball media day yesterday. Washington Times photographer Peter Lockley set up his lights for portraits, and I decided to jump in and have one of those "stylish" photos taken.
Fun afternoon.

Love,
Dad

Taking in some history

Philadelphia, Oct. 9, 2008--Had a few hours to kill before the start of the baseball game tonight, so myself, Houston based photographer David J. Phillip, and Milwaukee photographer Morry Gash decided to do some sight seeing before heading over the ballpark.

We started out the trip by chowing down on Philly cheese steaks at the legendary Geno's. I had mine "provolone with," which means provolone cheese with onions. You have to order the right way or it messes up the whole process.

After lunch, we drove around the city and stopped at Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was signed, then went and the saw the Liberty Bell.

Then it was on to see the statue of Rocky, located at the base of the Philadelphia Museum of Art stairs made famous in the first film. We just did a drive by of it, but it was still cool to check it, and the nearby Schuylkill (SKOO-kull) River out.

Heading over the game now boys. Sure wish you guys were here to see it with me.

See you in two days!!!!

Love,
Dad

Hello from Philly


Philadelphia, Oct. 8, 2008--Sorry for the long delay between postings boys, but I'm finally getting back into the swing of things.

Spent yesterday roaming the upper deck of Citizens Bank Park, home of the Philadelphia Phillies, as the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Phillies practiced for game one of the NLCS, which starts tonight.

I'll be shooting the game and every pitch, from centerfield, which should be a blast for the next two nights, then it's off to Kentucky Saturday morning to celebrate Alex's ninth birthday!!!

I can't wait, we're going to have a great weekend.


See you then,


Love,

Dad
