Downtown Legacy

I saw this truck for Legacy Magazine as I was taking a walk yesterday. I hadn't heard of Legacy before seeing this truck. It was parked a couple of doors down from a church near mine that had early services. Just wanted to show you all this truck with the magazine because I thought that the setup of the truck was pretty interesting.

YouTube Friday: Detroit Tigers report to Spring Training

It's time for Spring Training games to begin this weekend, so I decided to post this video, via DetNewsVideo's YouTube Channel. This was from the 2010 Spring Training workouts for my favorite team, the Detroit Tigers. Can't wait for the Home Opener on April 8. Hope your team has a good Spring Training in the Grapefruit League in Florida or the Cactus League in Arizona.

Sun Rising

Just wanted to share this picture with you all today. This was taken downtown this morning, and I thought that this sunrise was especially beautiful. I like seeing nice sunsets and sunrises. I hope that there are many sunrises as nice as this for you all in your lives. I'm trying to have as many in my life, as well.

YouTube Friday: Orbit Gum Commercial - "Exclamations"

For YouTube Friday, I decided to share with you all one of my favorite Commercials. It's from Orbit Chewing gum's YouTube page at orbitgumvideo. I always think to myself as I see these commercials on TV "I want to be the Orbit Girl when I grow up!" I like Orbit's catchphrase, "Dirty Mouth? Clean it up with Orbit!" I chew Orbit gum regularly, with my favorite flavors being Bubblemint, Tropical Remix and Perfect Peach.;

Don't be an Asterisk

I saw this ad in the mall for the "Don't Be an Asterisk" campaign from the US Olympic team and the Ad Council. It's point is to dissuade kids and teenagers from taking steroids. Many people see that some professional athletes that are now out of their respective sports used steroids at one time, when it was deemed illegal, and some think it's okay to use them. In other words, This site tells you not to use them because of their un-helpful benefits.

Spring Training is here!


As many of you already know, Spring training started with Pitchers and Catchers reporting to their respective Spring homes in Florida and Arizona this past weekend. I'm feeling excited, as you already know, about my Tigers. Lakeland, Florida has been teeming with Tigers and their fans, especially the ones who frequent Spring training each year. Us Tiger fans are a loyal Bunch of fans, as are fans of all Sports teams around the country and world. Here's to a great Spring and a great baseball season coming up!

Sliding in to the Winter Blast

The Winter Blast was this past weekend, and it really was a fun event, as it usually is. The Snow Slide made a comeback this year, after being absent for the past few years because of finances over the past couiple of years. There was an area with rides for the kids, as well as the concerts and free ice skating at the Campus Martius Park. I enjoyed hearing the music from the bands and singers that performed. Everyone seemed to have a great time and enjoyed themselves.
