Baseball Park Tour

And we are off! Scott and I are taking a baseball park tour. We left Minneapolis 90 degree weather Saturday morning for Kansas City's 100 degree weather!

There is NOTHING to see from Lakeville to Des Moines! Just flat farm land. Thank goodness we had some entertainment! On our way down we listened to David Sedaris' Naked on CD. Freaking hilarious especailly with Amy Sedaris (comedian) doing voices!

We stopped into the High Life Lounge in Des Moines. The place is famed for not serving beer introduced after the 1970's. Good food and the place looks like it was straight out of the 70's.
We made it to KC; our hotel overlooks the stadiums. Quite a sight! I can't figure out how to upload pics with my iPhone; so I'll add later!

More to come on the BBQ and blues (chris bell).

Sunday- at the Kauffman Stadium! This place is amazing; and it's been around since the 70's. Just proves if you do it right the first time you can use it and love for a long time. also whoever thought baseball should be inside be stoned. Seriously! There is no better way to watch a game!! Even in 95 degree weather!

An eventful game lead to an uneventful drive to St Louis. There were no less than 100 blown tires on the side of the road and at least 10 XXX adult book and video stores; which Scottie commented on how busy each of these stores were!

Need to comment on brewery restaurant.

And its Monday! Nothing like starting the day with a brewer tour! More to come by let's just say we had our fill of free t-shirts and the unwashed.


In St Louis, we are staying near the Union Station (near the river/arch etc.). We ate at a place that brews their own beer (not a chain!); reminds me a lot of Summit beer. Really good food as well!!
