One of the things we were looking for in a new home was someplace for my Reds stuff. I had created a Reds office at our old home and was hoping for an area to do the same here. Our finished basement was repainted and now includes recreational areas, my office and Tony's office, play area for the grandkids, TV viewing area, kitchenette and powder room - and of course, all done in the Cincinnati Reds theme. The vast majority of these items were collected personally and have a story to tell. Because I am a photographer, I especially enjoy getting my OWN photos signed or displayed, and the signed photos are all my own work. The signed Votto canvas is a collage I made from several of the shots I took of him and I had it signed in person. As you can see....still plenty of space to fill :)

The one item in my old office that didn't work in the move is the stained glass window I made (you can see it in my other Reds Home Office gallery.) However, I will be creating one for the basement window - hopefully soon.
