And unlike MLB parks, every visible surface is not covered with corporate sponsor advertising.Clowncarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02219213001049223673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-24884081818881681242010-05-26T09:37:20.582-05:002010-05-26T09:37:20.582-05:00CCAR: I fully intend to go see our new ballpark as...CCAR: I fully intend to go see our new ballpark as soon as someone gives me a free ticket, which might not be this season...<br /><br />I've seen two baseball games: the Cubs in Wrigley Field and the St. Paul Saints here. <br />Since the setting and the company are more important to me than the game, I wouldn't consider going to see baseball in an indoor arena, especially not our hideous Dome.<br /><br />RR: Thank you for that reminder, from Rumi. <br />Yes. I hope I don't sound like I regret doing this book---it's good, it's just hard.<br /><br />Probably one reason I got so low is that Joop was on bed rest (ha!) for a sprained back leg, and I was staying away so he wouldn't be encouraged to jump.<br />Such deprivation is bad for my health.Frescahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323129046492056942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-64576801626355335372010-05-25T14:32:17.344-05:002010-05-25T14:32:17.344-05:00Rumi.

I have my own hazmat areas of thinking. Family history, the current Gulf of Mexico situation, etc. I download my own sadness in a similar way - into the grass from under a tree, while reading and watching the girls play.<br /><br />Baseball helps too. But that's just me.<br /><br />Though you do have a shiny new ballpark in your town, yes? As opposed to that horrid eyesore, the Metrodome. Have you been?

It's an old friend and not always the most welcome, but it never leaves forever. Better to make some room for it, maybe brew it a cup of tea and give it a spot in the sun.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13923745480765984429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-52874000233601336152010-05-23T19:16:37.815-05:002010-05-23T19:16:37.815-05:00Fresca:
