To tell of sunny hours.

Today was made of sunshine and baseball and margaritas and ice cream! In other words, it was an awesome day!!! My Aunt H and I headed downtown late this morning to see the noon D'backs/Cubs game. I love afternoon games. It feels as if I'm playing hooky on life when I'm at a ball game during working hours, even though I'm technically on vacation this week. Illicit baseball FTW!

It was a gorgeous day too; sunny and warm and PERFECT and the roof on Chase Field was open to all the loveliness outside (thank goodness for sunscreen and baseball caps, though!).

Doug Davis pitched seven great innings, holding the Cubs to just two hits and no runs. A combination of the Cubs being a mess and the D'backs finally remembering that an offensive game is helpful to getting the W, resulted in a 10-0 win. Yay! \o/ It was a fun game to watch, plus the Cubs fans sitting near us were hilariously drunk without being obnoxious. So we were well entertained!

And then this evening we went to Baskin Robbins for $0.31 scoops of ice cream. It was a fundraiser event for local firefighter organizations, so in addition to yummy ice cream there were also lots of yummy lookin' firefighters around! Double win!!!

In all, this was a most excellent Wednesday! *g*

It was definitely a good day! And today has been a complete laze-fest together with a 2 hour afternoon nap! THIS is what I call a vacation! :)
