Paul is a lifelong, devoted fan of the San Francisco Giants baseball team. I've always said that there may be someone that knows as much as Paul about the Giants, but there is no one who knows more!In late June he used his birthday money to purchase our whole family, including my mom, tickets to the Giants vs Houston Astros game. They were the cheap tickets, where you have to sit almost looking straight down on the field. I'm grateful Minute Maid Park is enclosed with air conditioning, but the physics principle "heat rises" sure affects your comfort when you're sitting at the top.
The game was fun to attend. The Giants won and one of the players hit his first major league home run--a grand slam! Paul enjoyed seeing that. Of course that was during the inning that I took the kids to the first level and let them play at the kids' playground. On my way back up to the nosebleeds, I took a few pictures from the first level. Man, it felt like I was right in the game. Those seats are worth their cost. One day, I'd love to attend a home game for the Giants. Of course, I'd only want to attend it with Paul, because nothing else would make him happier.
