Today’s visual prompt is a shot I took on top of the Ferris wheel at the last Vegoose at Sam Boyd Stadium in 2007. What a great festival! I really wish they had been able to bring it back in subsequent years, however, the recession put the kibosh on that. I’m hoping it’ll come back…

I wanted to share how I manage my day, coming from a technologically-inclined writing geek such as myself. I’m a big fan of Google products.
