Jousting, comedy, and turkey legs at the Arizona Renaissance Festival in February of 2013! I've got a bunch of pictures from all the festivities!
Read MoreI visited Kiwanis Park in Tempe since, well, I've never actually been there. I wanted to get some shots around sunset, so I went right after work. I enjoyed it, and I think I'll be going back! Read on to view the photo gallery!

Read MoreThe Street Eats Food Truck Festival, held at the Salt River Fields just across the freeway from the Talking Stick Resort in Scottsdale, Arizona, was a fun and tasty way to sample some of the Valley's food truck offerings. I, along with several friends, ventured to this festival on Sunday.

Some of the varied items I consumed included:
- Lobster Grilled Cheese Sandwich - Tasty, but could have used a little more lobster and less grilled onions.
- Truffle Oil Fries with Parmesan Cheese - Possibly some of the tastiest fries I've had.

- Kettle Corn - I love kettle corn, and the smell from the cooker was amazing!
- Fried buffalo chicken balls - Quite good, with a smoky blue cheese that wasn't too odorous.
