The New Cruiser

We had an awesome opportunity arise on Saturday. Nick and I were given tickets to see the Texas Rangers 7th row back from home plate.

We had two extra and decided to see if my aunt Rae Jean and uncle Dave were up for going with and they couldn't decline with the weather being so clear and cool.

We could touch the dug out as well as see every minor detail going on out in the field. It is interesting how much more you enjoy a baseball game with the seat perspective you have. It was so cute to watch the kids trying to get the attention of players and hope for a foul ball.

There is a minor issue with the cramped leg room and prosthetics, but staying the whole 9 innings is worth it when you are so close to the drama of the umpire. Directly in front of me were two guys who thought they were way to cool to sit directly next to each other.

So, they created a "we are cool" gap and sat with one chair between them. Ah, so great for me. I stretched my legs out on top of the chair like a baseball junkie relaxed with my drink and watched every detail of the game. The "cool gap" made my night. Thanks guys.

New way to travel: bicycle cruiser. I finally got a new bicycle today and can't wait to break it in. I'll be riding myself silly I'm sure. I'm looking forward to be rolling around Dallas!

Love,
Jen
