Our son-in-law Andy and his brother Mitch arrived last Wednesday night with another couple from Peoria to take in some spring training games. They have been gracious enough to let Mark and I tag along with them to several games and we have been having great fun. We watched the Cubs/White Sox on Thursday in Mesa, but missed a game Friday night because it was sold out when we arrived. Yesterday we made up for it by attending an afternoon and evening game. Those matched the Padres and Dodgers in the afternoon and the A's and Rockies last night. I must say my stomach is getting tired of ballpark food, though! I need a home cooked meal soon. :-)
The weather has been picture-perfect for these baseball fans and I am happy they are enjoying the temps and sunshine. It will probably be hard to return to Illinois after enduring these nice days but spring is just around the corner there....hopefully!
My new rose bed is loving the sun, too, and is now almost in full bloom. It makes for a nice bright corner in our landscaping.
Well, this pretty much sums up our adventures the past week: baseball and ballpark hotdogs. Hope you had a good week, too!
