Cub's Game in DC!

Last weekend, Uncle Mike came to visit. We went to an Orioles game up in Baltimore and went site seeing around DC. You would think I would be posting pictures from that weekend, but no. I managed to loose my camera about mid-day on Sunday of his visit (along with all my pictures). I ended up buying a new camera that afternoon, which was alright because I wanted a new one anyway. However, I wanted to save up for a nice SLR and not the newer version of my lost camera. Oh well!

Yesterday, Saturday, I went to the Cubs/Nationals game here in DC! It was soooooo much fun! I was worried at first though for two reasons:
1) I had two different winning streaks going before Saturday's game. I've never been to a Cub's game where they lost and I've also never been to a game where the home team has lost. I wasn't sure which streak would reign supreme.
2) I had never been to a Cub's game outside The Friendly Confines and I was worried it wouldn't be as fun.

Well, the Cub's won so that settled that. As for how fun it was, it was awesome! There were sooooooo many cub's fans. The section we sat in had virtually all cubs fans. There were high fives, "Let's go cubbies" chants, and of course heckling the Nats left fielder. The best part was that I got to take someone to her first Cub's game! Erin, a friend from work, came with me and put up with my yelling and heckling. It's always fun to get someone to their first cub's game.

Here are a few photos from the evening:

Cubs Win! Cubs Win! It wasn't quite the same with no "Go Cubs Go," but it was still an awesome game!
