I’m headin’ to Pittsburgh!  Going to spend the weekend with some of my boys watching the Tigers play the Pirates in Inter-League play AND hopefully we’ll pull into town just after the first period of Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. None of us were planning on a game 7, so our travel plans have changed this week with the group trying to get out of work as early as possible so we can still watch the game.

Come on Wings!  Win this thing!  I have a feeling that being a Detroiter in Pittsburgh will really suck if the Pens win tonight.

I’m still really stoked about the trip.  First time at the new Pirate’s ballpark!  Taking my camera…I can’t get enough of ballparks!

Then, Lil’ Baird came.

So daddy walks out the other day and what do I see…
