Before I get to the post, I want to remind everyone that when I write the post, Sue's comments are shown in italics and vice versa when she writes. This is important today as I suspect that she may have just a few minor really unimportant comments on the post. 😉 Memorial Day weekend is …

So Much for Our Plans…
Wouldn't you know it? Just when we thought we were all set with our travel plans, the world goes and gets a virus. Too flippant? Sorry. It has been a rough couple of weeks. We last wrote about our trip to New York and Boston that ended on March 8. We were home just about …
Road Trip!
The summer is soon upon us and we are thinking about getting in the car and driving. The Saab is still in good shape (for a 13 year old car) and so we are getting into planning mode. As Sue told you in her last post, I have started a new job where, horrors of …
Opening Day!
The spring has arrived. I know this, not because it has stopped snowing in Chicago, but because baseball season has arrived. As Josh & I continue our tour of stadiums, we are attending opening weekend at Chase Field in Phoenix. Number 18 on our tour. We decided to attend the first two games of the …
6 weeks – 4 trips
I have a busy few weeks ahead: four trips scheduled in the next 6 weeks. The week after next, I am deserting Sue and travelling to Charlotte, NC, for a business trip. I leave Sunday night and return home Thursday night. I would like to tell you that I really like the city of Charlotte, …
Getting through the Winter
I hate the winter. Chicago is cold, windy, gray, and snowy. I am miserable from the beginning of November until the spring comes...in July. This year, I have been particularly miserable; I am not really sure why, it hasn't been very cold, there has been almost no snow and while it has been very gray, …
It Was a Busy Few Days
Last weekend, as I have previously written, was a baseball weekend with Josh. On Friday night, we went to Milwaukee and had great seats. We sat in the third row just off to the third base side of home plate. We were so close, we could almost reach out and touch the guys in the …
September Baseball
Yup. Another post about the best game in the world. Baseball. For those of you who missed the last installment of as the baseball spins, I will bring you up to date. Our intrepid baseball stadium travelers (Josh & Steven) visited Pittsburgh's PNC Park in August to get to the midway mark in the stadium tour(*). …
The Stadium Tour Continues
Last weekend I did my solo road trip to Pittsburgh, another stop in the grand tour of baseball stadiums. 500 miles each way, give or take a bit. I left around Friday noon, looking forward to a sunshine filled afternoon drive to Cleveland. Unfortunately, the weather gods decided to toy with me. It rained on …
Going Solo
....around the world in a rowboat. Ok, maybe not that far, but I am taking a solo weekend trip (I am so sad --as far as Steven knows) to Pittsburgh in a couple of weeks. It is part of the baseball stadium tour that I am doing with my son and we're meeting there for …
