Rangers Win! Rangers Win!


Not a phrase that Ranger fans get to see or hear very often, but today was glorious! A chilly 47 degrees glorious with a brisk north wind at the start of the game!


Izzie joined the older boys this year to another Texas Ranger Opening Day. We had a great day with Dr. Pepper, hot dogs, popcorn, peanuts, and some candy as well.

President George W. Bush tossed the first pitch, and even a liberal couldn't call this pitch a ball!

I bet the Cleveland Indian fans wished W. would have kept pitching, because the Ranger ace Millwood threw a great 7 innings and only allowed 1 run.

The scoreboard showed this:

That is Indians 1, Rangers 9!

You have to LOVE that flag!


A parting shot as we left this afternoon.


And after five minutes in traffic!

I have been waiting all day to see this blog! Peter was so excited when I talked to him on Saturday, it seems all he remembered from last year was Dr. Pepper, hot dogs, and bomber jets that fly as fast as a dragonfly! I am glad you guys had fun!
