Take Me Out to the Ballgame! GO DODGERS!

Todd has grown up loving the Dodgers! We went to our first game last summer to celebrate Carl's 60th birthday! Todd's brother Jason is here visiting with his family and we got a chance to go to the Dodger--Indians game this past Saturday! However, with the current heat wave melting SoCal, we sat through 110 degree weather (and that was in the shade). It got up to 120 degrees on the field at one point of the game! Although the Dodgers lost in extra innings, we still had a great time!

Here you can see LAC-USC Hospital in the background.
A new county hospital is currently being built right next to the current
hospital and will open this fall,
however the current building is considered a landmark and will
converted to offices and some clinics.

I hear you on the heat, we are melting up here in Davis! I spent the last few days in San Francisco, and it was such a relief to have a cool, sometimes cold, breeze. The game looked like a blast, we are going to add that to our "Caliornia Must Do List". I am glad that you had such a great time!
