US Open

Monday, September 10, 2007 by eric yang

Some of you may have heard of this little tennis event called the US Open. It's where a couple of people get together several times for a little relaxed tennis. Oh wait, maybe not.

Here are photos from the excursion out to Arthur Ashe Stadium at the Billie Jean Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows, Queens. We watched the men's doubles finals and both women's semi-final matches, the match of consequence being Venus Williams versus Justine Henin. Good times. And of course some requisite shots of food at Pio Pio, a Peruvian restaurant in Queens. Apologies on the quality of the shots, I reduced them to shorten loading times.

A lot of food and one lonely water. Hands reaching without qualm for the nearest comestible. Delicious.piopio2.jpg


About

Midweekpost.com is a take on New York City thru the eyes (and camera) of an OCD, ADD, Scorpio written in the timeless, Thoreau inspired, form of blogging. Or as we like to refer to it: ADD writing for ADD reading. It's authored by a most contradictive guy armed with a most applicable Univ. of Tennessee economics degree working in the media industry as a producer (you're damn right that's cliche') of design (huh?) for a major broadcast company's digital initiative (say wha?) that has somehow managed to find his Korean, yet not Korean looking self living in the city that Ambien & Cosmo induced coma never sleeps. All that said, I don't promise greatness and I won't promise awesome but I will promise New York and a little dash o' me.
