Our 10th Anniversary

Since we've been together we have tried to see a new major league ballpark every summer. Last year, we started the tradition of making that new ballpark an anniversary present. So this year for our 10th anniversary, we went to glamorous Cleveland OH to see an Indians game.







We had a great time. We explored Cleveland's west side market, enjoyed a relaxing cup of coffee, browsed through a bookstore and then had dinner at Cleveland's Great Lakes brewery. We took a shuttle to the game from the brewery and had a great time. Our seats were great - high, but right behind home plate.

After the game there were Fireworks set to beach music (since it was a beach weekend) and they were Great!! All in all we had a great time.





Because we were on our usual schedule, we left Milwaukee later than we wanted and I forgot that we lost an hour going to Cleveland so we missed the Akron Aeros game on Thursday night. But now Pete was jonesing for a minor league game, so we stayed an extra day and drove up to Akron for a game.

We got our ball tickets and then found a dog park so the puppies could have a little vacation too. Then we relaxed at the hotel before heading down to have a fairly unremarkable dinner near the park.

The game was a lot of fun and the Aeros, who had been down the whole game, came back to win it in the 8th inning - so it was a lot of fun.

Sunday we made the long drive back to Milwaukee, but decided to skip the turnpike for a while and took some back roads. It's really a beautiful drive off the turnpike!
