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.

Will winter never end?

Can't believe it's been 4 years since I started this blog to document  my epic Vancouver Olympic adventure. Go back to the beginning entries to get a taste of what I experienced.

Now  4 years later, , I've written more about the .'..And More'  continuing each year to learn  about being a Phillies Phan with my friends cheering me (and the Phillies) on. With one week to Clearwater baseball, and another 4 until opening day, in the thick of this seemingly endless winter, the ritual preparation has begun as Peter and I chose our six dates for April through September. With 6 sets of tickets in hand, and some checking around to see who wants to go to Opening Night, we long for the time when skiing is a distant memory and skating seems just wrong... a time to hear
Let's Play Ball.

 See you in April.
