As promised, several sets of photos recently taken.

Indianapolis Indians vs. Durham Bulls

Monument Circle Photo Walk
I went with local photographers I met recently on a photo walk around the circle.

Scott Kelby Worldwide Photo Walk

The Indianapolis location was Massachusetts Avenue; there were about 40+ photographers. I managed to accidentally underexpose my photos and didn’t notice in the field; I had to correct every one in Photoshop afterwards. Very frustrating, but a learning experience.

Friday was Stephanie’s birthday, so I took a lot of pictures.

While were were hanging out outside Barcelona Tapas talking, I took a bunch of pictures at the Corner of Alabama and Ohio Street.

We spent all day Sunday putting more bottle caps on the car.

Last night we went to see the Indianapolis Indians play the Durham Bulls. It was an eventful game – while we were up getting ice cream, the man sitting next to us took a line drive to the face. He was gone when we got back to our seats, but there was a LOT of blood everywhere. Yikes. Later in the game, John Jaso – #15 of the Bulls threw his bat into the crowd hitting someone, and then a couple pitches later threw his bat again. And, yet again, when he got up to plate in the next inning – whoops! Butterfingers. Sheesh. I took lots of photos during the game; we’ll have to see what comes out.

Several friends are using the mint.com site to plan and organize their finances. Looks interesting.

Damn, where’d all my free time go?

I’m sitting here making out our “To Do” list for this weekend, which includes:

  • Putting together new treadmill
  • discarding non-functioning television
  • putting loads of stuff on ebay or craigslist.
  • taking all the recycling to the recycling center
  • laundry, laundry & more laundry
  • Garrett’s birthday
  • Church on Sunday
  • Visit the rental house & install locks and pick up old lawn mower

I haven’t written a recap of last weekend’s festivities at the Kentucky Art Car Weekend yet – although all the photos are on Flickr so you can work out a general narration for yourself. I must say, driving down the street being chased by a Giant Red Phone that keeps ringing at you is quite surreal.

I also took a spin around town yesterday hunting down some elusive Big Things – something I haven’t done in quite a while. Those photos are still on my camera, though. Will need to take them off this weekend, if I get the chance. I found a hippo that I thought had disappeared, and a giant tomato, and also found nice retro 50’s signage and a cool diner on U.S. 40.

I really need to rework my “Big Things” pages again. I so want to get comments on the pages, and there are lots of things I need to add. I hope now that Movable Type is upgraded to 4.1, I’ll have less frustration building new sections. Although the upgrade has stopped posting my links regularly, which I need to figure out. That’s annoying, because I’ve written a lot of funny commentary in link descriptions that haven’t made it to my site. My wit should be preserved for posterity, people.
