If you have a minute, you should check out, http://aintthatweird.blogspot.com/.  The site is authored by a good friend of mine, Erik, who lives in Chicago.  Erik is interested in all the little things that make the big thing.  He has always been interested in all forms of art, and has just recently taken up photography.  Erik and I have walked many blocks snapping photogs of anything and everything that catches our eyes,  from spray painted bricks to destroyed bicycles.  He took some wonderful pictures on his most recent trip to Ireland and I’m sure the blog will showcase them!  The blogs offers posts of poetry, photography, inspirational thoughts / questions, and whatever is on his mind.  There is no question that there will be many great future posts, on http://aintthatweird.blogspot.com/, to accompany the ones that have already been made.  So check it out!
