At the beginning of May, my two friends, Mark Jarva and Eddie Garcia, and I took a trip back east to Boston and New York City. The purpose of the trip was for two celebrations. 1st, we are all turning 40 in 2009. 2nd we will also celebrate in 2009, 30 years of us being friends. Well as you can tell by the calender, it is 2008. We had to move the trip up a year because 2008 is the last season of the original Yankee Stadium. And as lovers of baseball, we had to make the pilgrimage to the House that Ruth built and while we were at it why not make the trip complete by going to Fenway park. So we did it.
First we make the trip to Boston. I absolutely loved the city of Boston and fell in love with Fenway Park. There was nothing like taking the Subway to the park and taking in all of the ambiance of it all.
The first thing that I noticed when entering Fenway was how small it was. Then The green Monster was there. We had a great time even though the weather was in the 30's.
Next was the Bronx and Yankee Stadium. This was a huge Stadium compared to Fenway Park. It was really cool to see all of the famous parts of the stadium.
Like the famous facade.
The retired Yankees at Monument Park.
All in all we had the time of our lives...next is Wrigley Field in 2010!
