Yesterday, we traveled 3 1/2 hours to upstate New York to visit The National Baseball Hall of Fame. It was a Father’s Day gift from our son to my husband. After having lunch, all four of us went into the building. My son’s girlfriend and I stopped to look at wax figures of Babe Ruth and plaques of the first Hall of Fame inductees. Then we hit the gift shop and went to a winery. The guys spent the afternoon there in pure bliss. They especially loved the Willie Mayes exhibition. They even stopped at the gift shop and bought us gifts. We went to dinner overlooking the Catskills (mountains) and a beautiful lake and marina. The guys talked about all the wonderful things they saw in the Baseball Hall of Fame. We girls just yawned. I was so happy that my son’s gift to my hubs was enjoyed by him, too. We all slept like the dead last night, but just returned from a game of golf. It’s been a wonderful weekend.

@DianneN IF I wasn't doing the driving, I'd say that I miss road trips.

Glad you enjoyed the BB Hall of fame. We were thinking about going to the football one in Canton when we were visiting my nephew near there.

@DianneN — I’ll go to the Baseball Hall of Fame, thank you. I like my grapes fresh off the vine, not fermented.

@LadyDuck Sorry about your horrible rain. We are “making hay while the sun shines.” Saw the trees begin to change colors up in the mountains. Pretty, but very depressing for me.

Growing up with two brothers, two sons, and a husband and father - all sports fanatics, one would think I’d be more involved. Nope!
