Go, Tigers!

I am just so thrilled that The Tigers won the AL Pennant this year! I can't believe I missed it! It's not like I've been busy or anything! They are kickin' some butt in Detroit tonight in Game two of the World Series. I have such fond memories of going to EVERY single home game one year with Betty Burns. That same year I also flew to New York and watched my team beat the Yankees on their own turf. It was exciting. This makes me soooo homesick. As if the recent Autumn colors didn't do it already. Gone from MI for 27 years and I still miss is so much. I never thought I wouldn't go home again. :(

The Rolling Stones are playing right now too - at Zilker Park in Austin, TX. It's the place I call home today and it is a nice enough town. The live music capital of the world and very cool. It reminds me of Ann Arbor, MI in so many ways. Anyway, I didn't get tickets to see the Stones and that broke my heart. My daughter's best friend is there. She doesn't even know who the Rolling Stones *are* much less have an appreciation for their music. Although, I'm sure she'll enjoy the excitement of being there with a bunch of old hippies that are groovin' to the tunes.

I gotta watch my Tigers take it on through anyway. :)
