2009 Trip Report
|
||||||
This year we saw a total of 13 games, 8 wins, 4 losses and 1 called game, in 13 ballparks. 11 ballparks were new this year. A new independent league, Continental Baseball League, was added. This is the only independent league we had not previously visited. In June we went on a cruise to Alaska. On our return to Anchorage Jim visited the Glacier Pilots. This is a college league, but he made an exception to the rule of professional teams as this was the only "league" that plays in Alaska. Starting in June we drove 7825 miles from Lynnwood to Iowa, then to St. Louis, MO, Atlanta, GA, Shreveport, LA, two locations in Arkansas, and finished up with a loop through Texas, before visiting 4 Corners, Monument Valley and North Rim of Grand Canyon in AZ, then Zion and Bryce in Utah before heading home to Lynnwood. We averaged about 25.2 miles per gallon. We were gone for 42 days. |
