San Doonego

I may need to move to San Diego.  I am here for the first time on business, and this city is incredible.  Thanks to post scheduling, I've been able to keep the blog updated daily with my Brycemas silliness, but I've generally been absent from the blog world over the past few days. 
We were in Salt Lake City Saturday and Sunday, Phoenix Sunday and today, and came in to San Diego this afternoon.  I was getting used to the furnace blasts every time I went outside in Phoenix, so when I got off the airplane today, the mild temperatures in San Diego put me in an instant great mood.  My mood really skyrocketed when I saw that our hotel was walking distance to Petco Park.  One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in my life:

I am so bummed the Padres weren't home tonight!  I love the walk up seats out in center field.  Apparently, they are free to the public. 

Awesome.  Simply awesome.

Of course, I almost wept when I saw this beautiful statue of one of my baseball idols, Tony Gwynn.  I don't care how bad the Padres are. If I lived here, I would be at this work of art of a stadium every stinking game.   The Lovely Wife and I are going to need to dump the kids off with babysitters and spend a few days here!
