Small World @ the A's Game!

I was invited to join my dad, my brother-in-law, James, and my nephew, Aidan, at tonight's A's game at the Coliseum. We met up at the BART station, took the stroll across the bridge to the stadium, and took our seats along the third baseline. The weather was absolutely gorgeous. It was bright, sunny, and calm, and remained that way into the evening.

My dad & I.

Aidan & James.

So around the 6th inning I went on a snack run. While walking back to my seat I saw my sister-in-law, Popie, and my nephew, Dieter, on a little stroll of their own. I started following them and called home to tell Kari I saw someone who looked familiar. I tapped Kimberly on the shoulder and sure enough, it was her. (Whew!) I put her on the phone with Kari, took a couple of pictures, and said good-bye. That was fun.


The bright, full moon shone in the sky directly above the center field wall tonight. It was the ending to a dismal performance for Oakland, but a memorable night of fun with family at the old ballyard.

Can I steal the pictures? :o) I took a picture of the moon too! We ended up leaving in the middle of the 8th inning and came home to find the final score was 10 to 3! Booooo!
