Notice the Lawn Maintenance Minimalism of the Seattle Mariners

I'm sure you are sick of me saying this, but I have never lived in a city with more perfect summer weather than Seattle. Despite a short heat wave in July, the majority of the summer months have been filled with clear blue skies, low humidity, and a high of, oh say, around 75 degrees. Jeans, flip flops, and t-shirt... life doesn't get much better.



Unless, of course, you do all that at a Mariner's Baseball game on a Wednesday afternoon. The last time I went to a pro baseball game was honestly when the Detroit Tigers were at their old stadium (shock!). Still, I quickly found myself comfortably cheering with the rest of the crowd. I was surprised how family oriented the game was (perhaps because of my exposure to college football and hockey crowds). And the views of the city skyline and Puget Sound from the stadium itself were absolutely gorgeous. Courtesy of my co-worker, Dave Williams, I couldn't have asked for a more fun Seattle summer day.



Oh yeah, we won, 2-0 against Tampa Bay.
