Georgia Tech Football

2011-01-12T13:13:22-04:00

Took in a Georgia Tech football game in Atlanta. It was against a much lesser foe and it began to feel like a beatdown was in the cards. It had cleared out on the lower level so we moved downstairs towards the end of the game. I was able to capture some action shots as [...]

Gerrow Lake Compound

2011-01-12T13:13:45-04:00

Mandi invited us up for some fun and frolic on Smith Mountain Lake in western Virginia. It was the middle of th summer and everyone was looking to have a good time on the water. We took a few boat rides, hung out on the dock, and enjoyed some jetskiing. [view-the-gallery galleryaddress="GerrowLakeCompound"]

Trip to Savannah

2011-01-12T13:25:03-04:00

Seeing as how Janis went to school in Savannah, she is always looking for a reason to go back. My lack of ever having been before was reason enough, so we went down for the weekend and stayed at the relatively fancy DeSoto Hilton. The view from the upper floors was very cool and set [...]

Mountain West Trip ’07

2011-01-12T13:22:12-04:00

Big family vacation out to the Rocky Mountains. We flew into Denver International Airport and spent the night in the city before taking off the next day. A trip out to Mt. Evans to drive on the highest paved road in the United States. At the top a short hike takes you to the summit [...]

Whitewater Center

2011-01-12T13:25:25-04:00

A company sponsored Saturday outing at the US National Whitewater Center. We were split up into teams of 6 and got to do a few runs on the man-made rapids. Afterwards we got a catered lunch and front row seats to watch other people paddle down the rapids. [view-the-gallery galleryaddress="UsWhitewaterCenter"]

Charlotte Sunset

2011-01-12T13:25:54-04:00

We found a nice spot at Bryant Park on the city's west side to enjoy a clear summer sunset. As the sun went down, the a nice show of colors transitioned to the dark of night. [view-the-gallery galleryaddress="ShadesOfSunset"]

Lynx Maintenance Facility

2011-01-12T13:26:14-04:00

As construction for the Charlotte's new mass transit line wraps up, they offered a public tour of the facility that will maintain the set of trains. It is directly adjacent to a major bus maintenance facility so they are able to share certain assets. We rode our bikes to the bus facility, where we were [...]

Coliseum Implosion

2011-01-12T13:26:34-04:00

The old Charlotte Coliseum was built in the late 80's as a multipurpose venue with tons of parking and reversible roads to get in and out of it. By the 2000's, it was horribly out of date and offered virtually nothing in addition to the events it hosted. When the city built a new arena [...]
