Baseball Adventures!

Our trip to Michigan a couple weeks ago started out at the perfect game - literally a perfect game. If only Joyce had made the right call it would be credited in that way, but no an error was made. It was a fun game to be at and to watch history being made. And who would have thunk that our $10 tickets (as in we paid $10 total) would sell for $65 on ebay? Yep. We have the memories so why keep the ticket stubs? I'd probably wonder what they were in 3 years anyway. And truth be known we didn't get into the game until the 5th inning.


We were hoping for a repeat this weekend at the Yankee game. Ha... not happening. We are not that lucky! It was military appreciation day and they did a jumpers exhibition. Always neat to see. I still like it way more at the West Point games, but that's just me. Our seats were in the fourth deck, but still it didn't look as high up as this picture looks.

Mark with Tiffany and Eddie at their first game in the new stadium. As you can see we are close to the top! Notice Eddie is without any Yankee gear - he sucked it up for this game - he's a Met's fan. Next time it's a Met's game. And next time we will take the train.
We had a nice little detour on the way home through the projects and with two blondes in the backseat it was pretty funny. In a scary sort of way. Kind of good we had on hats. The trip home took 2 hours+ with no stops! Mark was very patient and I was happy to have passengers to help navigate along with me (read... get lost with us). Forget the garmin - it was useless. When the call was made to go right or left much debate went on and many other drivers were cut off. We did make it home finally. But the moral of the story... the train is faster.
