Opening Day X

Scored tickets for Opening Day! I haven’t missed one since I moved to Houston ten years ago. I simply love America’s pastime and the Astros are my favorite team! My wife and I will attend the game with another couple who are friends of ours. Jerseys will be worn, hot dogs will be consumed and our lungs will be tired from yelling so much – I can’t wait!

We open at home with the St. Louis Cardinals after a couple away series. I think this is at least the second or third Opening Day where we’ve played the Cards in recent history, and if memory serves me correctly we haven’t won those openers.

Here’s to breaking with history…

Go ‘Stros!!!
