We start with a celebration and end looking out a bar window in Chicago. Here’s the week that was Oct. 7-13!

Photo-A-Day 2013: Week 25

The week of June 17-23 started with a Monday date playing in a charity golf tournament in south Orange County and ended by spending the first full weekend of summer in one of my favorite places: Chicago. Let’s take a look at the week’s images!

17-JUN-2013: Not a bad view for a Monday afternoon, playing a charity golf tournament at Monarch Beach near Dana Point.

21-JUN-2013: Love this image down the left field line at Wrigley Field. Check out the deep "foul pole" on the building across Waveland Ave., 460 feet from home plate.

Photo-a-Day 2013: Week 9

As the calendar flipped from February to March, I spent just one full day in L.A. during the week. Below, you’ll see a few more from Miami, where we left off in week 8 and then a transition to much more frigid Chicago for the second leg of a lengthy bit of biz travel. Remember, like always, to see a full size version of the image, simply click on any of these below!
