Wednesday, March 18, 2009: East North Carolina My boss Andy and I were out in east North Carolina on a project. I had a few minutes of downtime and couldn’t resist taking a non-work related photo – what can I say, I’m an addict. Highway 64 (2009) Friday March 20 – Saturday March 21: North Georgia I had put in
Spring fever I think has bit me with the photography bug. So with spring in full bloom I felt inspired to get off my rear and do some photography around downtown Raleigh.

Texas was good. Birthday was good. Basically did Austin, San Marcos, and Dallas. Half of the people I saw were reallllllly sick, but we made the most of it anyway. Good times with good friends. Ate all the food at all of the places I used to love to eat. I took a total of about 150 pictures. Which for
