Summer Sittin' - the new summer hobby



The year that we added a deck to our house, my son coined a new phrase: "Summer Sittin'" He declared that it was his favorite summer pasttime. Since then we've spent a lot of time perfecting the art of Summer Sittin' and we've determined that the premier place to get in some great Summer Sittin' is at a Tacoma Rainiers game. Last Tuesday, I took a vacation day and caught the 11:30 am game with a girlfriend. The clouds cleared up just in time. We splurged $14 for box seats and spent some of the game worried that we might get called into the game because it seemed like our seats were actually IN the Rainiers dugout. I don't golf or fish or any of those other activities that call people away from the office on a sunny day. But I do need a day here and there to get caught up on my Summer Sittin'.
