The Reds are out of town but the lights are on at GABP. Getting ready for Paul McCartney?

But we’ll see how everything plays out over the next few days… Fingers crossed. 🙂

Milan and I set out this evening to to do a quick mile walk just as the Red Sox game
started with the intention of being back by the start of the Reds game. But it was a
really nice evening and we ended up doing another one of our long 4.21 mile walks.

We love our walking. 🙂

I saw it at some places for $3.92 a gallon. But I filled up for $3.69. Thanks Kroger!

Genifer went to see the Reds play the Giants tonight down at Great American Ball Park.
We usually just get the $5 cheapy seats and then sit wherever we want. If the $5 seats
are sold out like they were at the last game we went to, then we get $8 seats and sit
wherever we want. We experienced a new wrinkle tonight, no seats available. Our only
choice was to buy Standing Room Only tickets. I’m not so sure this was the best idea.


We walked around looking for a place to sit and holy geez the ballpark was crowded tonight.
Even section 107, the alcohol-free section that’s usually empty, was packed.

Down the first base line was packed too…

So we went to so spot by Mr. Reds Smokehouse…

And it was really crowded there too. And there was no breeze whatsoever. Sweating lots.
After five innings, we decided to head to Holy Grail and watch the rest of the game.

On the way out of the ballpark, we discovered this unmarked food stand is actually an
all-items $1 stand just like upstairs. No wonder there are always huge lines here.
There were lotsa people everywhere. This is what it looked like behind home plate.





The Reds went on to win the ballgame 7-2. They’re now 10-2 when Genifer is at the ballgame.
Even if it’s just for a little bit. 🙂

Today is the three month anniversary of my first official date with Genifer. Sooo swoon.
We went to a baseball game together and then saw Bad Veins and You, You’re Awesome.
Remember? So to celebrate, we are going to go to the baseball game tonight.

I like her lots. I hope there are many more anniversaries in our future. 🙂

Tonight big national act, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists performed live on Fountain Square.

They were my lunch. I hadn’t eaten SpaghettiOs with meatballs in forever and a day.
And they were pretty delicious. 🙂

Look what I found at Mayberry Foodstuffs today…
