"Stay classy San Diego." |
Had a fantastic little getaway to San Diego this past week. Arriving Tuesday evening Mike and I discovered the sleepy quality that downtown San Diego provides in the wee hours. Hence, no booze at 1:30 in the morning. Oh well, whattaya gonna do? No big deal, no big whoop.
So, that brings us to Wednesday. A day full of anxious anticipation of the National League Division Series game five between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the St. Louis Cardinals. In order to calm our nerves we proceeded to take in one of the finest attractions San Diego has to offer; the San Diego Zoo. Superb would be an understatement to describe this zoo and we didn't even have time to experience it in its entirety. Now, of course we were excited that the Pirates had a chance to advance to the National League Championship in their first playoff run since 1992. Alas, their fate was not to our preference with the Cardinals ultimately defeating the Pirates, however, we are very proud of the ball club making a strong effort this year after a twenty year dry spell from the playoffs. And you can still support our Buccos in 28 North fashion with our song Bucco Fever.
Anywho, this brought us to Thursday which found us spending a lovely afternoon with a buddy in Del Mar, taking in the beauty of the Southern Cali Pacific, and having some epic jams. And in the evening I proceeded to get very intoxicated in celebration of my birthday. Overall, I had a fabulous birthday outing, thanks to all who participated/contributed/encouraged my indulgent behavior. Special thanks to Michael & Rick Lindner, Chris Wherle, Al & Josh Wein; had a blast in San Diego with you guys.
More soon,
Ty
