Father's Day is still weeks away, but last night on our drive from the airport Helaine revealed my gift.
I am tough to buy for. When there's something I want it's usually specific and esoteric like a lens or motherboard. At the moment there's really nothing I want/need. Father's Day is still weeks away, but last night on our drive from the airport Helaine revealed my gift.
Helaine was right. While snow was on the ground I'd scoured the Phils schedule looking for an opportune weekend in some city served by Southwest.
And then she told me–we're going to Fenway this weekend. The Phils play the Sox in an interleague series. We've got tickets for Saturday and Sunday.
The forecast isn't perfect, but our seats are in the grandstand under cover. It doesn't make much difference. Fenway is a special place. It's like a beautifully restored and loved masterpiece.
This will be Helaine's first (and second) trip there. I hope she likes the place as much as I do… and that the Phillies sweep.
And what, you don't lust for the new iPhone!?
I must admit the iPhone 4 has turned my head. If Helaine or Stef would like my current model I'd trade up. Otherwise, I can wait.
Do I envy you for those games!!! My cousin used to play on the red sox, and even when he did, I never went to see him play at Fenway. I was a teenager then and my dad was a Yankees fan. But I always watched the red sox and especially when they played at home at the green monster.
Have fun Sat and Sun when you go to those games and enjoy every minute.
