Spring Training anyone?

Hi guys! Long time no see!

So...the Mrs. and I were playing around online the other night and decided that we were loooooong overdue for a vacation. So...we are going to Florida the last week in March thru the 1st week in April. I think we are leaving Ohio on the 24th...and should be in the Orlando area in the evening hours of the 25th, and are coming home either April 1st or 2nd...I'm not sure which yet. We are planning on catching a ST game while we are down there. Lots of decent seats are still available.

Let me know if any of ya's are going to be there during that time frame!

I won't be there

Have fun though!

I will do my best! I'm hoping to spend an entire day at the facility...but it depends on how far of a drive it is to and from. We're staying in Lake Buena Vista, so I have to figure out how far of a drive it is. LOL

I will definitely take pics and post them as soon as I can.

man! I wish I was down there right now! It's better to see the workouts at the beginning, before they start playing games~

I can't wait for the games to start


OPENING DAY!

I agree...I just wish I could go now. We had to plan this trip around my work schedule, my spring break schedule, and my kids' spring break schedule. As it stands, I'm going to miss one class at school, the kids will miss 3 days, and I have to burn 4 days of my vacation time.

You'll let us know if the big names leave before the 6th inning? They did that last year. Very disappointing. And it is soooo hard to get any sort of autograph once they start playing games. We did what Tiger hunting we could, but it was more like observation!

I bought the Men's 2X size and am willing to sell one of the jackets. I got them on a special that MLB was running. Normally they cost $79.99 each. (as of 3/7/09 they are on sale again at $59.97 + shipping). I would be willing sell one of mine for $45.00 shipped. The size may be too large for you G. Unless you like them loose fitting.

39.95- 75.00

Depending on sales and stores for each

at least in the Detroit Area


Don't know about Akron

try eBay

Good Morning Gang! Well...Thank God for hotels with W-Fi! We're on our way to Lake Buena Vista. We left Ohio around 3:45 yesterday afternoon, and made it to Chester, SC before we had to stop for the night . So far, it hasn't been a bad trip. Averaging 32 mpg, and that includes going through the mountains of WV and VA. By my calculations, we should make it to our destination around 4:30. The kids have been surprisingly good for being in a car this long.

Still not sure which game we're going to try to make it to, but there seems to be pleanty of tix still available. Now that Maggs is back with the Tigers, I hope to get some good pics. I'm thinking about making a sign that says "I just spent 18 hours in a car with my wife and kids to get some Tigers autographs!" Think it'll work?

Well...it's about time to hit the road again, I'll check back in later.

Goooooo Tigers!!

Yay! Have a great time!

Have fun. Drive safe (I don't know why people say that...I mean it's pretty much assumed - you never say "drive dangerous this time").
