A REALLY GOOD WEEKEND



There’s a mermaid up there.

The sun took it’s time coming out, but we heard there was a mermaid on BS Rock.  Down we went to take pictures, and we heard that a family from Arizona put her up there.  What fun.



Then we ran errands and ate out…a delightful luxury allowed only because we eat on the Senior Menu.  By four, we were dressed and ready to go to the ball park.
   

I love the drama of the ballpark structure.


They have begun decorating with large graphic murals…here’s my favorite player, Trevor Hoffman.

Look at the glorious colors, and wonderful enthusiasms too.  One kid in front of us had never been to a real game, and he was having so much fun a Guest Service rep had to walk down and talk with him.  Our group agreed the kid would have one heck of a hangover in the morning.


The stands are just starting to fill up, and a children’s choir waits gathered in the outfield.

  • Himself:  We all had lots of fun everywhere yesterday.  Not only were we surrounded by a group of G’s friends, the Team won wonderfully.  Today Pam, Poolie’s friend visited.  Simply delightful to see her.
  • Herself:  Had a ball, had great food, and got caught up in the drama of it all.  Plus: A Hodad’s cheese burger and M&M’s.  Delightful Pam visit.
  • Reading:  Leaphorn and Chee at their best.
  • Watching:  Alaska State Troopers.
  • Gratitudes:  For the sunshine and wonderful colors: The green of the grass, the blue of the sky.  For the delightful company at the ball park.  Pam’s visit.  The power of tree colors today.

  2. I haven't been to a game in 25 years, but that's what they were. Color and noise and cheering. Laura went to a AAA game or our locals, the Rubber Ducks. Then her group camped out overnight on the outfield. A player autographed her hand and she ate her allowance in ice cream.
