Chicago! - Hot Blues and Jazz, Delicious Pizza and the Navy Pier

This is Chicago! My Kids and I were visiting the for four days about the end of July/Aug 2009. We saw the Trump Tower. We ate great Duo Pizza and went out to one of the Mexican Restaurants... I can't remember it's name but it was terrific.

We hit the Navy Pier with my sister and her family including boat rides, swings and a ferris wheel.

Went out and saw the whole Chicago skyline.

My Kids and I were taking pictures and viewing the sights.

Ahh-hh-hh There's a spider in the Holiday Inn...while I was working on these photos.

It was a great 4 days.

Where have I been in June

I began June with a Nascar Race on June 6th at Delaware Speedway. I was taking photo for Inside Track Motorsport News; and I used to do work for them. Right now, I'm just doing one assignment....

I took pictures of the people at the track, all of whom I know. DJ Kennington won the race. Many years ago DJ, who lived near Delaware track, started running there when he was 16 years old. He's now 32. This is him on a cell phone wearing his Castrol suit. He was driving the green #17 machine that's going through tech at the top of the page.

Take a Train to Ottawa.......

Yes, I was in Ottawa. I took a train and I went to go see Ottawa. It was so much fun. I looked out the window and, from my Westin Hotel, I could see the Parliament Buildings.

I went to see the grounds at the Parliament Buildings and discovered cats and a squirrel in the back of the grounds.

The sculptures were unique and the pillars too.

I wandered along going to the Rideau Centre and to By Ward Market. They're lots of things to do.

It was one of the days that the Sri Lankans were here. It was chaotic and difficult.

But I went along and took pictures as usual...............

Las Vegas

Las Vegas is not like other cities. Chicago, Los Angeles, Colorado and Tampa all have the same ring about them.... and Las Vegas is not like them. The tourists haven't spoiled the "real city" - it is not a "real city" - it is more the Disney World of the adult world. Lots of gaming, pubing, entertainment and high tech attractions for adults. You rapidly lose your sense of time since it's windowless and clockfree.


For six decades, Las Vegas has been shimmering from the desert haze of the Nevada desert. Being out in Las Vegas will be sure to win your interest.

The Calendar Is Here!

Creating a calendar was great. I had the selection of different pictures which gave me the chance to choose my favorite photos. It was hard to select just twelve.

The calendar goes from April 09 to March 10.

I think I might attempt to make one from September 2009 through to December 20. I have lots of photos that I might use.
