Take Me Out to the Ballgame


Happy Birthday, Andy. Thanks Dustin and Abby for making it such a great day.  They bought us all tickets for the home opener of the Seattle Mariners.  We were able to take the bus and it let us off 2 blocks from the stadium.  Great ride and easy access to Safeco Field.  We got there in plenty of time as you can see from the picture.  Why are we dressed like that?  It was cold.  It was 36 when we got up this morning, and it was 46 at noon.  Far too cold for a baseball game.  We were 4 rows from the top of the stadium in right field.  We got to see all the action, but we were in the shade until 5:22.  When the sun hit us, we warmed up 18 degrees.  That was nice.  We got to our seats at 2 pm, the game started at 3:40.  We saw all the pre game as the stands filled up.  We were really cold and we left as the bottom of the 9th started.  We walked to the bus stop and were on the bus in 6 minutes.  Warm we were on the way home.  Abby called to tell us we won in the bottom of the ninth.  It was a great day.  Thanks Dustin and Abby for taking us.
