As my friend JY likes to call my alter ego, “Event Guy” came out this week: trips to Dodger Stadium, Staples Center and the Empire Polo Club in Indio for the second weekend of Coachella 2013 played a big part in the days between April 15-21. Here are the week’s images!

It was definitely a homebody week between March 19-25. Between a heavy workload at the office and being pretty road weary, the only image in this group shot outside of my building comes on from a Friday night dinner at an old standby. Hope you enjoy this week’s pix!
