http://www.govolsxtra.com/staff/michael-patrick/<p>Patrick worked for three other newspapers before moving to Knoxville in May 1979 to join the News Sentinel staff. He says, "Except for three or four, I've loved every day. I believe newspaper photojournalism is one of the very best jobs in the world. Everyday I'm meeting wonderful people and learning new things as I tell their stories."</p> <p>Patrick adds, "Outside of work my wife, three children and two grandsons definitely come first. After them my interests include volunteering at my church and then trying to keep my two bonsai trees alive. When there is spare time I do a little target shooting with my two sons and on rarer occasions I get to play a little golf with friends."</p> <p>View Michael Patrick's monthly photo column <a href="http://www.knoxnews.com/news/lifestyles/faith-values/ibelieve/">iBelieve</a> which focuses on individuals in East Tennessee who volunteer doing things because of their faith and spirituality.</p> en-ushttp://www.govolsxtra.com/photos/2012/feb/10/194311/The new Football Training Facility includes a large player&#39;s lounge overlooking Haslam Field.
