MLB Stadium Update

As a lot of you already know, I have the goal of visiting every Major League Baseball team's stadium. I'm currently at seven stadiums. I've also been hoping that I'll be able to add at least one new stadium to my list every year, although I realize this may become unrealistic. I'm holding out on some of the California stadiums so that I have some easy ones left for once life gets crazy. =D

I was a little worried that 2011 might leave me without a new stadium, but luckily I was able to make it to a new one this year. And a "hard" one at that, given how it's kind of off on it's own on the US map, but I was able to visit Safeco Park while I was in Seattle a couple of weekends ago.

And the best part was that I got to enjoy the game with an old college friend. Thanks Elise for a great afternoon!

What I'm Loving - August 2011

• I’m loving that the D-backs are in first place for the NL West. Here’s to hoping that they can hold out.

• I’m loving that Awana has started back up and that I get to see my girls on a regular basis again!

• I’m loving that it’s almost time for Soma’s fall retreat! I’m looking forward to good fellowship and time out on the boats.

•  I’m loving this:

• I’m loving that the HOV lane is open on the eastbound 101. Eliminating the construction shaves a whole 5 minutes off my commute every morning and has completely eliminated the stop and go traffic that I used to have to sit in. It may not sound like much, but an extra 25 minutes each week does add up! Now if they can only finish the westbound 101....

• I’m loving that it looks like things might be coming together for me to go on a missions trip sooner than I had expected. More details to follow later.
