Another first:  I went to an Astro’s game tonight, with my sister’s
cast.  We lost, but I enjoyed learning a little bit more about
baseball and hanging out with some good people.

At the bottom of the sixth inning (I had to learn what that was, too),
the board flashed “Welcome A.D. Players cast of ‘Anne of Green
Gables’.”  I had my camera ready–oh, why was it the only one
there?!–and stood up to take the picture, and the darn thing took too
long to focus and so I got a Happy-anniversary-Herman-somebody
instead.  I will beat myself up about that one for a while. 
It would have been a great pic to share here, especially for a couple
of the folks who couldn’t be there.  Ah, well.  But it was a
good first experience.  And, yes, I’d do it again even though it’s not as exciting as football.  *smiles*

Edit::
I forgot to say that the two exciting parts of the game were
1) when the Cubs hit a home run near us and our entire section was yelling “throw it back”, and
2) when a fan got onto the field and then tried to climb the wall to
get away from the security guards.  He didn’t–they grabbed him
and yanked him down and tackled him.  So we got some football-like
action after all.
