My trip to Fenway

I thought it was time to write it up and show some pics. As most know by now, we took our son to Fenway for his 12th birthday. I must say the city is pretty cool. Everyone is pretty friendly, unless you are in a car. They are impatient and like their horns in Boston. Good thing we walked or took the T everywhere. The unfortunate part was that it rained for the last three days of a four day trip. Thankfully being from Seattle and being used to it, it was bearable. My only worry was getting the game in on Monday. If it was rained out, it would have been a wasted trip. It rained until about an hour before game time, and only for about ten minutes during the 7th inning. If you ever get the chance to go to Boston, make sure to get to Fenway and catch a Sox game. The fans are great, they are polite, and they know the game. Thanks for the great experience Boston!!

Update from Boston

Here we are in Lovely Boston. Too bad it's seems like home with all the rain. I surely hope that we can get this rain to blow out today, so we can have a game at Fenway tonight. This was the whole point of the trip. Everyone send your thoughts this way for a dry evening. I don't care if it's a bit cold, just DRY!! I highly doubt the Mariners can win tonight with the way they played the last two days, but I can hope. Once I return to Seattle I will try to get some pictures up.
