Aaron Sanchez throwing for the Twins (August 28, 2022)
This photo is from the final start of Aaron’s eight-year career in major league baseball. He went 3.2 innings, giving up two runs, and didn’t get the decision in the Twins win over the Giants.
Russian kid in St. Petersburg, Russia (July 2019)
Russian men are required to enter mandatory military service when they turn 18 years old, meaning this kid is probably either about to conscripted, already was conscripted, or has already become a casualty (along with over a million others) in Putin’s senseless war.
Jake Cave of the Minnesota Twins hits a two-run home run plating Nick Gordon
I have his home run swing photo as well, but it wasn’t my desktop background like this one. I’ll have to remember to post it as well (as it’s a better picture).
Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Strasbourg (June 2024)
This was a weird day. The weather was horrible, but it was our only chance to visit Strasbourg, France so we got up early and headed to the bus station. Buses came and went, but ours was not among them. A group of us grew very frustrated. In fact, most of the people who wanted to ride the bus from Saarbrücken, Germany to Strasbourg gave up and went home. We had no other options so we continued to wait. Our bus finally pulled into the designated spot, but it didn’t come from afar. No, instead, it had been there (on the other side of the parking lot) the whole time with the bus driver fast asleep. He offered no apologies for making us all wait 2+ hours, and thus our day trip to Strasbourg was significantly shortened.
Strasbourg was really cool, even in the rain.
The church in the town center was being used as a TikTok background by multiple groups of dancers (as you can see in today’s photo).
