This blog began as a way to record my musings about preparations and travels to the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada February 16-27, 2010. From that amazing experience came this ongoing story of becoming a sports fan. You can follow my tales of awe, agony, and all the emotions in between as well as view pics from seasons of Phillies baseball. Along the way is a little Eagles football thrown in for fun, and even some astronomy and weather related tales. I feel lucky to have witnessed some historic games, some heartbreaking losses, but all wonderful when told from this new fan's point of view.

The People Who Make It All Happen

Citizen's Bank Park is always a wonderful place to go to enjoy an evening outdoors. The seats behind home plate where we usually sit look out towards the Philly skyline, which at dusk is a bea-yoo-tee-fool vista.

This is a tribute to the people at the Ball Park who work hard to make the experience always pleasant and as joyful as it can be whether we win or lose. From the bag checkers to the elevator operator, everyone is friendly and willing without hesitation to share a story or two of  a memorable playoff or world series game. And if you are lucky you can hear some reminiscences of the old stadiums. All you have to do is ask.

So, hats off to the Phillies Ball Park staff!
