Baseball - Seattle Mariner Style

 Outside the stadium a huge seahawk pecks Ray on the head
 It was a sunny Sunday  7/12  in Seattle. Perfect day for baseball - not too hot, not too windy. Safeco Field was a very nice open ballpark. We were impressed
 Folks from CA took our pic and vice versa. There's no crying at baseball - everyone's friendly.

Saw this during a walkaround. Our seats were quite safe.  The Mariners did stink it up, losing 10-3 against the hated (for Texas fans)  Angels.

Okc Adventures - Water Taxi





 So, based on time we did not see the OKC Museum of Art, the Myriad Botanical Gardens, or the American Banjo Museum.  Those will have to be for another trip. Instead we headed back to Bricktown and caught a water taxi.  The mile long ride is fun and relaxing. Enjoy the murals on the walls, cruise under bridges, and start thinking about where you want to dine. Restaurants and bars line the area. Folks sit outdoors eating and laughing. The area is festive and you are ready to join the party. The taxi continues to cruise to Lower Bricktown and a park where you can see the Oklahoma Land Run Monument. There’s a lot of bronze – it’s impressive. It’s still a work in progress with a selesai count of forty five figures expected. The horses, cattle, and wagons that are there now are nifty.

Dinner – we ate at a Mardi Gras, New Orleans style restaurant. Very tasty fish tacos, mardi gras nachos, and Cajun fettucine. We rolled out of there.

Onward to baseball – the AAA Oklahoma Dodgers play at a very pleasant ballpark right in the heart of Bricktown. Family friendly and the right price – reasonable. Alas, the Dodgers did not win for us, but we enjoyed a good time.
