Warren Spahn

Stephen — Fri, 23 Jun 2006 03:37:05 +0000

The Braves are in the middle of a losing streak, so I thought I’d turn to one of their past heroes for some good luck. Warren Spahn is one of the greatest pitchers in history, and his great statue is right outside Turner Field.

Go Braves!

Go Braves!

The Braves aren’t off to a great start so far, but they’ll probably get going once it warms up. I took this last season, and the batter is Andruw Jones.

Kennesaw to Atlanta

I currently live in Kennesaw, which is about 25 miles northwest of Atlanta. I took this from the top of Kennesaw Mountain, and you can see the Georgia Dome in the center.

I took a trip last week to the Georgia Aquarium. It’s still a very crowded place to be since it opened a few months ago, but it has some great exhibits. These are a couple of my photos from the aquarium. I hope you enjoy them.
