Flavors.me

I've moved my main domain HIWAY7.COM over to an aggregate site ala tumblr called Flavors.me. The transition was seamless and had zero impact to my current running site. It actually looks good for once. I recommend flavors.me, it's slicktastic! Check it out when you get a chance.

Summer with a Vengeance pt 5

First off, I know I've been late in posting stuff. Time is something that's hard to come by these days. I've had some recent events at work completely monopolize my available time to do anything other than work. I did want to post about my Comic Con 2010 experience though.

The Con this year was amazing! My family and I had a great time not only sampling the zeitgeist of pop culture but also taking time to do geeky things together. Whether it was waiting in line for some shiny free trinket or catching up on the soon-to-be-released video games, movies and tv-shows. The crowds this year were bigger than ever and represented all walks of life. P1140668

It's hard to do a write up of Comic-Con because there are so many facets to it. I could write hundreds of different articles and still not cover everything! With that said, I present to you my Comic-Con 2010 photo set on flickr. Press here to view the photos.

I think that's probably going to bring this summer's blog series to a close. I'll be at Tiki Oasis for some much needed R&R August 19-22 and I'll probably post some stuff from there.


Thanks for reading, take care!

I don't even know if I have the words to describe the past week prior to this update. Suffice it to say that the word 'busy' probably best describes it.

July 17th is one of those high holy days for Disneyland geeks such as myself. Disneyland turned 55 that day. The park marked the event with some special merchandise and some low-key yet memorable events. One such event was a gathering of 55 Disney characters at the town square on Main Street. It was quite a sight!



We followed this by taking a stop by the NFFC convention. I had an opportunity to meet Jody Daily and Kevin Kidney. It was definitely a nerdy fanboy moment. It was cool chattin it up with artists I admire.

The following night we soaked in World of Color. Amazing show.

So this weekend I'm going to attend the 41st Annual San Diego Comic-Con. Here's a sneak peek:



Thanks for readin!

Summer with a vengeance - pt. 3

We are in the thick of 'Summer with a Vengeance.' This time I bring you part 3.

Early July is awesome. Filled with fireworks, food and fun. We had an opportunity to the San Diego County Fair over the holiday.

I think the county fair is the destination of the summer. I'm really big on the sights and sounds. Fair food was insane this year! I can't help but wonder what tastes better; Chocolate covered bacon or deep fried butter? My arteries are grateful for not finding out. Those vertigo enducing rides get more ridiculous each year as well. I hit my limit on these rides about ten years ago. My son, on the other hand, could not get enough of these rides, which is totally awesome.




Let it be known that this is the year that I learned how to make pizza on my bbq grill. There is nothing like the taste of pizza you make in the backyard!

It's been really cool interacting with folks over these posts for the past few weeks. Both the Happy Cow Car Wash and the San Diego Air & Space Musuem have thanked me personally for visiting their establishments via these posts and twitter. Thanks for reading and hopefully we'll see you all again soon!
