Welcome to Red Sox Nation (Offically)

Cooper went to his first baseball game on Sunday, June 24th.



We traveled down to Petco Park to watch the Boston Red Sox play the San Diego Padres.



It was a pitcher's duel. Beckett vs. Peavy.



Varitek tripled and homered. Lowell had a base hit to right to score Ortiz. Papelbon pitched a perfect ninth.



Giza and Carrie came with. The Sox beat the monks 4 to 2.

The Diego fans were very nice, even when we were winning. Petco Park is stunning. It's all state-of-the-art wachity schmakity doo, but also has character. It's a park, not a stadium, which I like.



The Boston fans loved Coop. "You raisin' him right!" They kept saying.

So near us yet far...Cooper like the rest of us will probably be a "displaced" fan for life.

We watched all the games here with our Pardres friends....they are still talking to us...Happy to hear you all had a great time. Have a "trememdous" trip back east and we will be in touch before we go back in August. LOVE
