March 3---Spring Training Cardinal game!:

Before Angie and Josh knew they were moving, they bought tickets to the Cardinals' home opener Spring training game down here in Jupiter--about an hour from Coral Springs.  I was excited to get to go to another "birding" outing---my beloved Cardinals!  I had never been to a Spring Training game until last year.  I've been to many regular Cardinal games and although they're fun to go to, I figure you go to regular games to people watch and enjoy the atmosphere.  To watch the games you turn on the tv!  But Spring Training games are in a much smaller stadium and the games are like "warm up" games----lots of substitutions, lots of errors, lots of fun.

 Yea for all our World Series Championships---time to win again!

 I'd never heard of most of the players.  Every year seems to start out that way. 

 I think this is our new fledgling catcher learning from Molina.

 We even got to see the Clydesdales!

 Josh's Mom and Dad were in town from St. Louis and went with us.  Always nice seeing them! 

 Unfortunately Angie spent most of the time on her phone texting back  and forth with a Realtor in Atlanta about a house they wanted to rent---getting all the contract stipulations squared away.

 Another hit!

 And he's------------------out.  Dang it!

 But we still won!  It was a good game.

And we're going again next weekend.  Well, some of us.  The in-laws went back home and Angie and Josh are moving more stuff up to Atlanta.
