Signs of Spring Part II

Wearing shorts and sandals at work and keeping an eye out for the Safety Officer. (Open toed is a no no.) On the drive in went down Yawkey Way and snapped a pic:

Fun Fact: Yawkey Way was Jersey Street back when Tiant and Bill Lee were pitching for the Sox.

On Easter Sunday night there will be baseball played in Fenway Park. The Yankees have reloaded after dumping Matsui and Damon in the trash.

I accidentally got an awesome seat in 2004. Doesn’t this get you all tingly?

Another sign of summer to come, The Rudder opens on Thursday April 15. Are you going to shoe horn yourself in there on the 15th? Because of flooding Tax Day for us has moved to May 11. Is that true? I’ll take it.

Eye-Fi

We poked through the Apple store last night and I saw this new Eye-Fi SD card.  I thought all you GMG readers/photographers would love it!

It’s an SD card that wirelessly uploads all your photos to your computer and photo sharing sites like Flickr or Facebook and can even tag each image with a geo-location! They sell them at Apple for $49.99, but I have seen them online for a few bucks cheaper. I told Mike this is on my “list”.

Congrats Chris.
