City of Palms Park

City of Palms Park (in Fort Myers, Florida) is where the Boston Red Sox plays their Spring Training games. Lee County just fought a tough battle (and won!) to keep the Red Sox in the area for several more years. One of the main things the Red Sox was looking for is a new stadium similar to Fenway Park, including a Green Monster. So now Lee County is searching for an area for which to build the new stadium.

(Update, Dec 24th, 2008: I bought tickets for two of the Spring Training games in the upcoming season. Tickets went very fast, but I was able to find a few decent seats a day after the tickets went on sale. Some people camped out in line for a few days to get tickets. I think the ones waiting a few days were trying to mainly get Yankees tickets.)

After the Sunset

My wife took this picture of me standing on a beach on the island of Captiva, Florida, on September 25th, 2008. I used Photoshop to give it a little different look.

Grandma the Photographer

I took a picture of the crowded beach with everyone waiting for the sun to set. For this image, I cropped it to just a few people and then used Photoshop to give it an artistic look. This photo was originally taken on September 25, 2008.
