To the center left of this photo, you'll see a brick building called the Western Metal Supply Building.  One can rent a 'suite' for 20 individuals/ $75 a person (food and drinks included) for a game.  Quite nice.

Also, in the background of this photo, you can see the San Diego skyline.  It's quite a nice area of the country.  Only two rain out games in the history of the team.

Here's your's truly in the dugout.  Next to me (not photographed) was a rookie Padre learning the English language. 

Not a better place to learn it than a ballpark!
After tour of park, headed north to Fresno.  Traffic like you've never seen!  Gusty winds!  It's a whole other world out here. 
Friday, 12/17
Drove from Bakersfield to Fresno today.

Fog, fog, and more fog. 

I didn't make it to the game after all that.  Was extremely tired and the fog rolled in again around 5 pm PT. Couldn't see the roads.

Think I'm going to pass up going to Salt Lake City and just head back to Colorado.
