Take me out to the Ball Game!!

As a Computer Graphics/ Webdesigner Teacher, I am lucky to see the school year wrap for our summer break. Life is all about using technology as a tool- not something to consume one instead of living.  Sometimes the "tool" can allow one the time to have fun or in some situations, more time to have fun!  One example was when a friend invited me to a Red Sox game. I was thrilled to go but had work to do but  I said "yes" because I had an iPad. 

On the bus ride up to Fenway ( free WiFi on the bus), I used my iPad to catch up on school emails online, complete a student recommendation, and even had time to watch a movie using  Netflix.  The movie stopped once but came in right away at the same spot. The images were so clear and with ear phones- no other riders were not bothered. The ride was very relaxing and went by quickly.  I got to Fenway Park and had time to spare so enjoyed the sights and sounds that make Boston a great place to be a fan. I admit I put the iPad away but did use my iPhone to snap some pics (one above ) and checked a question we had about baseball stats.  All made for a productive and enjoyable day- especially since the Red Sox won!!
