Take me off to the ball game, or something like that the song says. Anyways tonight we had tickets to the Portland Sea Dogs game, they are one of the Boston Red Sox feeder teams so are pretty good at the old whacking, chucking, catching and running. So prepare for the biggest blog ever.
Tonight they were playing the New Hampshire Fisher Cats who are miles behind them in the league. They play at Hadlock Field which has a great statue/sculpture thing outside,
We got there on time and I sat under the statue of Slugger the Sea Dogs mascot, like billy nomates waiting for everyone else to arrive,
Eventually some people did turn up, in fact everyone did, and we made our way into the ground on a warm, muggy evening.
The game kicked off, or chucked off or whatever they call it, andfd there was a great deal of chucking and some whacking and a bit of running and even the odd catch or two. Our lot partied and you can spend the rest of the blog working out who is who and trying to guess what they are up to...enjoy!!!
We're not sure what kind of creature that is but it didn't bite.
This is me being ACtion Man on my way to the loo.....
and then it was all over, and the Sea Dogs had lost despite all our best efforts to sing and dance them to victory,
and on our way out of the stadium we saw a yellow School Bus, it has always been Phyllis' dream to get her picture taken on one, so we asked the bemused driver and here she is,
more blog soon
Glad to see you are all having a good time! really envious of you all.
