A Night at the Cubs Game



When our friend, Ted, called yesterday with a couple of tickets for tonight's Cubs game, we snatched them right up! Of course, yesterday it was 80 degrees.

But last night Minneapolis sent us their weather.


We got there early to make sure we were among the first 10,000 paid customers, to get our Kosuke Fukudome bobbleheads. (I can't vouch for the pronunciation in Japan, but here in Chicago that's Foo-koe-DOE-may.) That blanket cost us $50, by the way. And there was a line outside the Right Field Gift Shop waiting to buy them. We got the last one. No kidding.

But by the fourth inning we were chilled to the bone, anyway. Caught the end of the game in our nice warm house. (Cubs beat the Dodgers, 3-1.)
