Yesterday we went to Peoria Stadium, where we watched the Seattle Mariners and the San Francisco Giants. The Mariners won 1- 0 beating the Giants, who were the winners of the World Series last year. There were over 6000 fans at this game, compared to 3000 at the game last week, with seats filled evenly on both sides of the stadium. Herb and I don't really care where we sit, mostly try to judge whether it is going to to warm, cold, windy, hot or sunny. The day was cool and breezy, so finding we were too cool, we just kept moving around the stadium, either cooling off or warming up. There are four different seating prices and some people buy the cheapest $6.00 lawn seats then move into the stands when they see that all of the seats aren't going to be filled. So it is kind of like musical chairs as people take a seat, then have to move because the real owner shows up to claim the seat. Everyone seems to work the system and no one seems to mind. That was pretty much the excitement for the day, with a beer brot and beer for our dinner. What a diet.
Don't have any plans for today, it is supposed to be warm so will sit poolside and go for a swim. See one last ballgame on Thursday, do laundry and pack the car on Friday, and start for home on Saturday. We know it is cold and snowy in Joseph, but will as alway, be glad to get home. Love to all, OWAV:)
