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.

Let the season begin 2014

I am never sure in the beginning what I will feel like when the season starts, but this year I have these sensations of excitement, of Halleluyah that surfaced in the past week. There is a new TV program on every night that shows all the games in progress, which is helping me see who all the players are on the other teams. Of course, I'm quite happy when the Phillies are highlighted especially when they are winning.

I know, I know it's early. Looking forward to Wednesday's Opening Night game. Hope the weather is good
