Tempting the wrath of my ancestors. . .

One good bit of news this week. Back in December, we bought a Giants ticket voucher pack, enough for us to go to two games. It was a bit of a nightmare to figure out, and we ended up having to spend more money t9 sit in the same section for one game, but two dates to visit the most beautiful ballpark in the world and cheer on the G-men.

The first game is against the Marlins on (what we hope will be) Opening Day weekend.

The second is on July 27th against the Milwaukee Brewers. Now, my family has a history with the Brewers. My grandfather was a baseball fanatic and loved the Milwaukee team. Braves, Brewers, minor or major league, he was there.

Some of my best memories of visiting Gramma and Grandpa was going to County Stadium to see a baseball game. He had seats in the front row right behind home plate shaded to the first base side. The weather was always great, I got to eat a ton of junk food, and even if I didn't understand what I was watching, I was there with my Grandpa! He even taught me to keep score!

Sadly, he's been gone for many years now.

But when we go to the game against the Brew Crew, I'll be carrying a sign:

GRANDPA WAS A [Brewers logo] FAN.
