The Rocky Rockie Road

I took a trip to Coors Field recently to watch the much-heralded match-up of Esteban Loaiza vs. Jorge De La Rosa.  While I was there, I decided that it was probably a good idea to snap some photos of my own; now I can quit "borrowing" other people's photos for the schedule wallpaper  :) .  Speaking of, I should have the May edition up by the end of the week; I apologize for the delay, but Finals/papers/projects had to take precedence over other things.  Anyway, I hope you enjoy the photos I took, and don't be surprised if you see some again by the end of the week :)

I thought this was pretty cool; sometime between the Opening Weekend and now they added these markers to the upper deck concourse, marking 1 mile above sea level.  Here's a wider shot:

When I first saw it, it underwhelmed me a lot, but it's growing on me.  Looks right pretty up there :) .

Snagged this off the intro video on the jumbotron.

Check out De La Rosa's ERA.  I took this a bit too late, so I couldn't catch it when his ERA was 108.00.  The first inning wasn't good.

Check it out, the random truck now has a distance behind it.  I thought it was cool.

And finally the Coors Field entrance sign.
