This week, I can finally cross another thing off my "Things to Do Before I Die" list, I took a trip to Bradenton, Florida to check out the Pirates Spring Training. I was able to weasel a couple of extra days out of a business trip to Tampa for some baseball. The result? I had a fantastic time. The weather was beautiful and I was able to squeeze quite a bit into the two days I had in town.

I may post some commentary later, but in the meantime check out the photo gallery of the shots I took down there. I was able to take a bunch of shots from the Pirates/Devil Rays game at McKechnie Field on March 8th, as well as my two short visits to Pirate City on March 8th and 9th. Enjoy the shots!

After much procrastination, I am finally getting around to updating the look of this site. The old layout was always considered the "beta" version -- just to get things up and running. A re-design was supposed to be implemented long ago, but life kept getting in the way. Now the design is done, I just have to get it to work. Normally, this wouldn't be difficult, but I upgraded Movable Type (my blog "engine") since I first started this blog and I have much learning to do to make everything work right. To this end, this site will be undergoing many changes as I tinker with the system in prepartation for the new design. Please be patient. Hopefully, I can get back to baseball sooner rather than later.
