LAST WEEKEND OFF

As a big NASCAR fan, I find myself looking for something else to do on the weekends when there is no Sprint race. Of course there are a million things, including that doggone "honey-do" list, but last weekend my brother-in-law came up with a great idea. He's a huge Yankees fan. He said lets go to New York and see one of the last games that the Yank's are going to play in Yankee Stadium, "The House That Ruth Built". What a great idea. So he and I and four other family members flew to the Big Apple. Even though I'm not much of a baseball fan, it was a blast. And the game we attended was made even better by having to go thirteen innings. The Yank's played the Oakland A's. Looking around while we gorged ourselves on hot dogs and pop will be a great memory. Built around 1931, that place is more of a shrine than a stadium. And think of all the greats that have played there. Without steroids of course. I highly recommend to all of you reading this that you try to go to one of the games left to be played at the old stadium. You too will be part of a great history.
