Phils-Nats Game

After a productive day of working on a few projects on the house - we now have a fan that is centered in the TV room and a new outlet and window air conditioner in the back bedroom, aka the nursery - we (Tim, Michael, Patrick, Uncle Michael, Mary Kay, Jack, and I) headed down to the Phillies-Nationals game. The rain started while we were driving down to the stadium, so we spent a bit of time at the outfield bar. This was conveniently just in time to see the Preakness and watch the filly, Rachel Alexandra, beat all those boys.

The rain cleared up for an on-time game start. The boys decided to sit as close as they could get,

but Mary Kay and I stretched out in our actual ticketed seats out in right field.

Early in the 6th inning, the rain started and Mary Kay and I had to decide whether to try to wait it out under cover at the top of our section or head down into the concourse. Well, we went up, and then the monsoon came...

We made it out, slightly damp, but we had a great time!
