Take Me Out To The Ball Game

For the first time! Can you believe it? I played baseball in school and with church and work, but I have never watched a real live pro baseball game.

My parents bought 20 tickets and pretty much the whole family went (except my dad who hurt his leg and wasn't up to the walking). We watched the Blue Jays play the Yankees. Appropriate since my sister and her family live in New York. The Yankees won but they deserved it. We were up in the nosebleeds as you can see but still enjoyed it. I am not going to buy season tickets but it was fun. But loud, way too loud.


And on the way home we were reminded why we go to Toronto so rarely. Too crowded. Too much traffic. We are not city people. Though I do enjoy people watching on the subway.

Last night we went to the drive in for the first time this season. So it has been a busy weekend. Off to bed now.

I love going to baseball games! I especially enjoyed it when the Blue Jays were doing so well.

I'm not a baseball fan, but I do understand the noise level at games...i'm sure Baseball is as noisy as hockey games.

Wow, haven't been to a drive in forever.

That's too bad for you dad, hope his leg improves fast.

I enjoyed the baseball game we went too, but I think hockey is still more to my taste. Although I'd give the fighting a pass.

Hope your Dad recovers quickly.
