Tickets start at $9. Other discounts are also available. You can get a senior discount, or a military discount.

LOL That is interesting that you can't get a discount when they play the LAD's Maybe I'll put that on my bucket list. Make a trip up there (and pray the truck does not break down) and watch a game.

Gotta be bleacher seats. OTOH, it's a really nice park, and who really cares where you end up sitting?

Hopefully the scooter can climb up the bleacher seats ramp. Of course, right now the scooter lift is on the fritz, so I have to wait for a new one to be delivered. Hopefully that happens before the end of the season.

Just make sure that you pick the right fork in the road.

No rain here, but the temps have fallen to the high 80's feels very good compared to the 100+ temps we have been having.

We got a little overnight, but the sky opened up around 11:00. Up to 0.41 as of this moment.

No rain here. Cooler weather though. Didn't need the AC the last two nights. However, it will be back up to 100 by Tuesday of next week.

My niece walks in like she lives here. Opens the fridge , grabs a Coke, then takes the remote control and starts flipping channels. She's not old enough to drive. Apparently, my brother in law dropped her off. I asked her what she came over for. Supposedly, she knew that there was a 9ers game, so she came to see what I made to eat. Supposedly, there's always something good when the 9ers play.



Sorry kid. Just stir fry noodles. You could have gone to Panda Express.

I decided to see what it would cost me to see a Giants game. $155 in gas plus whatever the toll road charges for crossing the bay. Three hour drive up, and another three-hour drive back. After three hours of driving I would need to eat somewhere, that is not even figured because I don't know the prices there. Guess I will just stay home and watch them on TV. Besides, the VA still has not replaced the scooter lift yet, so I would need to wait for that.

Gas, toll, and food. You forgot about parking. That's at least $50.

You could avoid bridge tolls and bridge traffic by taking the 152 from Chowchilla to Gilroy. That will allow you to stop at Casa De Fruta for a bite to eat.











Take a look at this. Forget whatever they are talking about on the news report. What's important is that you see how cold and foggy it is. That's from today. It's cold and foggy. No sun. And the wind is blowing. No 100 degree weather here. We're in the 50's at best.
