I took a bit of video from last night’s fireworks display over Riverfront Park. The Tennessean estimated that more than 100,000 people came to the event this year, and I am curious how they even began to come up with a final attendance. The crowds stretched all the way up to Third Avenue [...]

Samantha and I are enjoying a “staycation”, the idea of staying around your home city on time off from work rather than traveling. Today’s two events (so far) were the Music City Hot Chicken Festival in East Park and the Music City July 4th event downtown. I took a few pictures from the events on [...]

So much for the notion that a summer would go by without a saga for the Nashville Predators. Last year it was about how the team was going to move to Hamilton, Ontario would not move to Hamilton would be sold to a California investor would be sold to a group local investors plus a [...]

Vacation season is upon us with schools out for the summer and the weather warming up. My inbox has been filled lately of out of office notes and even a few e-mails at home to friends have come back a few days later with an apology for not being around to answer them sooner. I [...]

Samantha and I spent a bit of time today at the Tennessee Arts & Crafts Fair at Centennial Park. Our somewhat insular routines mean that we spend a couple of hours at a time on our respective computers reading various things on the Internet, so getting out of the apartment is held at a premium.
It [...]

Ice had formed on my windows this morning as I drowsily slumped into the front seat of my vehicle. The cold snap overnight had caught me by surprise and without a coat. I had also managed to forget to grab a frozen lunch on my way out the door, but those stairs are even more [...]

I had read a bit about the appeal of East Nashville in the cover story in The Nashville Scene last summer and remembered a passing reference to an insanely popular mailing list for the neighborhood. As the Internet and a connected world ceased to be an awe-striking concept around age nine for me, I was [...]

The last few times Samantha and I have gone downtown, we return to our car to find a small leaflet left by the Church of Scientology on our windshield. Now, I am as much a live-and-let-live kind of guy as anyone, but these ads are a bit disturbing. Think for a moment what kind of [...]

Bad bounces, missed opportunities and facing off with the number one seed in the Western Conference has the Nashville Predators following the same script from the 2004 playoff series, right down to the handshakes and rolling credits. Detroit advances by winning Game 6 3-0 and the series 4-2. Given their fortunes last summer, at least [...]

Courtesy of my wife’s work, we had the pleasure of attending tonight’s Predators vs. Red Wings game at the Sommet Center. The 3-2 win over Detroit is always satisfying, but I have to say that was by far the best hockey game that I have ever attended. I can remember an overtime win way back [...]
