4th of July – 2008

fireworks

Okay, I realize that this post is a bit behind schedule.  I’ve been very busy with work and Mike.  :)  Anyway, the 4th of July this year was full of good times.  My friend Erin had come up from Sierra Vista for a weekend of Diamondbacks baseball and invited me to go to the game on the 4th.  There were going to be fireworks after the game and I figured, why not!?  Last year I spent the 4th sitting out at Tempe Town Lake from 7pm in 100 degree heat*, let’s just say that this was much better.  For my $10, I got to see a baseball game (we lost) and fireworks in an air conditioned ballpark?  What could be better?!  The photo above is one I took of the fireworks after the game.

I also attended another game with Erin on Saturday.  Again, the D-Backs lost.  Oh well, it was still fun!  I’ve been to more baseball games this year than I have in the past two years.  I think the thing I like most about going to baseball games is that you don’t really have to watch the game.  Don’t get me wrong, I watch the game but I also spend a fair amount of time socializing.

*For those of you not familiar on how things work in Phoenix, Arizona, it can easily be over 100 degrees for hours after the sun has gone down.

  • Wowzer! Those firework photos are super clear! I’m impressed. Does your camera have some special fireworks setting or something?!?

  • Cool! I spent my 4th driving…or something else crazy, I don’t remember…my memory has turned into one giant melting plot of BLAH.

    Oh, BTW, when I read your blogs through my RSS feed in the Mail app a bunch of question marks are randomly thrown into the sentences. Do you know why that is?

  • I have no idea why that may be. Probably something with mail not reading in the RSS very well. No one else has this problem through Google Reader. Hmm…
