Fantasy Baseball

OH DEAR GOD ITS ALMOST BASEBALL SEASON! waaahooooowheeeeee!

If you've noticed a slight depression coming through in my photos and or lack there of, chalk it up to a severe withdrawal syndrome from Major League Baseball. Ahhh...just the thought of it...the crisp summer air, the crack of the wooden bat, the various aromas of spilt beer, cracker jacks, pine tar, baseball glove leather and bbq flavored sunflower seeds....ahhhhh. Is your mouth watering yet? No....??? Whatever...go back to Russia...you soulless anti-american.

I may be going to Spring Training this year with some crazy kids...expect many photos to be posted if I make it.

For those of you who resonate with those long over due yearnings....hopefully you're as addicted to Fantasy Baseball as a crack head is to ....well... crack. =) I know I am. Just little over a month is left before draft day and a half year of number crunching, statistics whoring, and swearing! WHOO!

...yes... they fixed my work coffee maker.... why do you ask?

GO PADRES!



Ohh and my keepers for this year are (Robinson Cano, Travis Hafner, Justin Morneau, Aaron Harang, Ben Sheets and Nick Swisher) mmmmmmmm

Snow...Seattle...Siscos...SOLID!

Spent the past week up in Seattle/Olympia visiting Kate for her and Brian's wedding, and getting some time in with Julia as well.

Without getting too in depth with all the happenings, I'll give you a quick run down....Landed in Seattle, found Julia, ate at Dick's, Drove the better part of the puget sound trying to find a target store, saw my sister get hitched, drank some 30 year old scotch, made fun of my brother, made fun of everyone else with my brother, met a badass dog, hung out with my train obsessed nephew, got the flu, medicated myself into oblivion, hiked in the snow, went to seattle, ate a crazy french lunch at pikes market, said bye to Julia, flew home...got food poisoning...puked my guts out!

Good times!

Overlooking the Puget sound underneath Bald Eagles =)

Suka, Brian's dog. I'd go on about how much I like Suka, but then I'd wind up depressed and Jessica would have to convince me all over again that it would be cruel keeping a dog in a place as small as ours...bah.

Snow...in Seattle... pretty awesome.

Brian and Kate's front yard.

Night Photography

California State University San Marcos at night. This is one of the more beautiful campuses in San Diego, albeit new and undeveloped for the most part.

Wild Fires in Poway circa 2003 at Espola Rd and Twin Peaks. In a weird twist of Irony, almost everywhere this fire burned in 2003 was saved in 07 when the Witch Creek fire gutted most of the surrounding area.

Point Loma Sunset. That tiny spec in the middle of the water is a sail boat. I really try to stay away from sunset photos as they are pretty cliche, but every now and then you can't help but be amazed by the setting sun.

Washington D.C. Backyard summer nights. 100 degrees, humid, fireflys, bbq's, cold beer and a tiki hut.



Candy Cane Lane, Poway, CA. Think the Griswalds Christmas lights....but on crack. The entire neighborhood follows suit and about 30 houses combine forces for a month to put on this amazing display. Which, I'm pretty sure is visible from space.







San Diego County Fair Fireworks, not the most spectacular in San Diego, by any means, but you can't beat the ocean front location.

Click to enlarge, San Diego Coastline Fireworks. This is overlooking dog beach in Del Mar with La Jolla off in the distance. Believe it or not, those fireworks are from Sea World.

Enjoy,
