Yesterday my pal Barron and I went on a short road-trip to Houston see the Los Angeles Dodgers play the Houston Astros! Barron is a big Dodgers fan (being from LA), and I just like hanging out at a baseball game, so we decided to go and see the game. (I have several fun memories of seeing some pro baseball games when I was younger - I saw the San Francisco Giants play at Candlestick Park, and once I saw the Cincinnati Reds play and Johnny Bench hit a grand-slam home run!) The drive to Houston was easy (since Barron did the driving!), and we listened to stuff on my iPod and talked the whole way. Minute Maid Park was incredible - they had the roof closed, so we were in total air-conditioned comfort! Everything about the park was really top-notch, and we had great seats behind first base. We ate hot dogs, peanuts, Cracker Jack, nachos, and Barron also had a BBQ sandwich (plus two giant beers each, of course). The best part of the game was when Barron caught a foul ball! He had his glove with him, and he just stood up, leaned over one row of seats, and it went smack into his glove! (The game was televised and I TiVo-ed it, so when we got home we got to see him on national TV!) Unfortunately, the Dodgers lost, but we had such a great time anyway. Driving home I forced Barron to listen to lots of Disneyland attraction sounds, and now I'm getting psyched for my upcoming Disneyland trip!
