NASCAR Weekend at New Hampshire Motor Speedway
Yesterday we took a trip to New Hampshire Motor Speedway. It was a good time with Brian Whalley, Jason Allgire and Heather. I had these grand dreams of taking lots of pictures this year to make all the people who didn’t go jealous. At the end of the day I only took a few, below. Great weather and great racing and another Kyle (Busch) won the race for the second year in...
Western Caribbean Cruise 2010
The first week of February, Heather and I took a much needed vacation. If we have to live in the COLD weather that is Boston, at least we can get away in the middle of winter for a trip to warmer weather. So we took a trip on the Carnival Liberty cruise ship to the Western Caribbean. We stopped in Cozumel, Grand Cayman and Jamaica. We took plenty of pictures, so here they...
Two Tweetups in One Weekend: eduTweetup & HubSpotTV1Year
So this weekend I attended two tweetups. For those of you who don’t know what a tweetup is, it’s an event organized partially through twitter where you have the chance to physically meet individuals that you have connected and built virtual relationships with. Granted, it sounds sounds the same as a get together or meetup, but for some reason it is fun to say “tweetup.” Here’s the wikipedia definition of a tweetup. For the first tweetup, we celebrated the one year anniversary of HubSpot TV. That’s right, it means that they have filmed 52 episodes and continue to produce them weekly. In the short attention span of the web, this is a major accomplishment I’ve even had the pleasure of filling in as co-host of a couple...
Weekend in Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard
Saturday August 1st, Heather and I left the apartment early in the morning to head to South Station, hop on a bus, and head down to Cape Cod for a weekend with our friends, Bonnie and Dave. As a side note, Au Bon Pain’s Smoked Salmon and Wasabi on Onion Dill Bagel is an AMAZING breakfast sandwich. Anyway, so when you no longer have a car, traveling outside of Boston becomes a little bit of an adventure. The bus ride was mostly uneventful besides the traffic, but when we arrived Bonnie and Dave were ready to take us on a ferry ride to Oak Bluffs on Martha’s Vineyard. It was a perfect day so I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves. Martha’s Vineyard reminded me a lot of Hilton Head, SC. I guess the only difference is they get a lot...
Week in Chicago for eduWEB 2009
Last week I was in Chicago for the eduWEB conference. It was an awesome conference. Not only did my presentation on SEO for Higher Education go extremely well and get fantastic feedback, but .eduGuru WON the eduStyle People’s Choice award for Best Higher Education Blog. Of course all that aside it was just a fantastic chance to hang out with all the wonderful people in Higher Education Web that I just haven’t had the time to since taking my new job. I’m won’t get into everything about the conference in this post, but I do want to share some of my pictures exploring Chicago. One of my favorite times during the trip was while hanging out with my buddy tsand on Wednesday when we went out to meet the PlaidNation crew. What an interesting...
Fenway Park Pictures: Braves In Boston
A little trivia for you. Did you know that the Atlanta Braves not only were originally from Boston, but they were originally called the Boston Red Stockings and are one of the two remaining original National League Teams, the other team being the Chicago Cubs. The original Boston Red Stockings team and its successors can lay claim to being the oldest continuously playing team in American professional sports. It was in 1907 when the now known Braves gave up the name “Red Stockings,” which was then quickly picked up by the American League Boston Red Sox. So take that Red Sox fans and your tradition! This game happened to be current Atlanta Braves pitcher Derek Lowe’s first return to Fenway Park since leading the Red Sox to a World Series...
