Fun With Pictures

So Blogger has added an easy-to-use button for posting pictures on one's blog. It's long overdue in my book. I thought I'd take a moment to test it out, and use the opportunity to say a few words about the new downtown ballpark Nashville's minor league baseball team is going to build.

This photo is the artist's rendering for the new park.

I have a few random thoughts:

1. I'm going to go to a lot more baseball games once this thing is done.

2. I'm going to try and sit on the first-base side, for the view of the skyline.

3. Sure looks to me like a person could wander over the new walking bridge that spans the width of the Cumberland and stand there and see the game. Might be a tad far away, but it's at least a view I want to check out.

4. With shops, housing, and restaurants, as well as a greenway-ish area for families to spread blankets...this is going to drive a lot of traffic and revenue through the downtown area. I think that's a good thing, but I hope there aren't any parking woes added to the already frustrating parking situation downtown.

5. Posting pictures on blogger is rather easy. Of course, I say that before publishing this post and seeing if it causes any havoc to our site.

6. Just tell me when you think it's time for KW to chill out and post a little less frequently. It's been so long since I could do it with any regularity that I guess I am a bit enthusiastic.

7. Popcorn! Peanuts! Cold Beer! We should all go to a game when this baby is built. I can almost taste the hot dog already.
