Photo Album

It's 2002.  It's the Coach, it's the Rock.  It's the world famous Metrodome in the Twin Cities.  In this photo I played the role of the Coach, while Pete played the role of the Rock.  And the man behind the camera is Jeff, who was the driver and who put us up in his Minneapolis apartment.  This trip set the stage for future summer road trips.

2003 in Cincinnati.  We found a waterfall and decided to take a group photo.  From left to right in row 1 it's Gonzo, Chris, me, Jerry, and Megan and Cathy are in the second row.

2004 in the Lou.  Perry, Gabe and I were waiting for a table at the Hard Rock Cafe and decided this would be a nice scenic place for a photo op.  Photo credit to Jerry, even if the shot wasn't perfectly centered.

2005 meant we were going to Kansas City.  We had an enjoyable time at Parkville MiniGolf.  Perry, Jerry, Lesley, Cathy, and Aaron all put up a good fight, but Chris's putter was as hot as the weather on this afternoon.

2006 in Cleveland, Ohio.  The group poses in front of Jacob's Field on a warm, sunny afternoon shortly before the Indians pounded the hapless Kansas City Royals.
