First Game of the Year

As an avid Milwaukee Brewers fan, I'm embarrassed to say that Tuesday's game was the first one I've been to all year. On the bright side, it was a great time and worth the wait. It was my friend Derrick's birthday so he and his wife Terri organized a tailgate complete with a lot of beer, tasty burgers and brats and fun for all ages.




Someone brought the Bean Bag Toss game (left) which kept some of us busy, and feeling defeated. It was a lot of fun hanging out and the weather was great. Derrick did all the cooking which wasn't necessary since it was his birthday and all, but he enjoys it and did a great job, especially with the brats where he added some his own spices and things. Tasty.

Inside the game (right), we were sitting in left field where we just baked in the sun. It was so hot and not a lot of air came through. The Brew Crew broke it open with a 5-run fouth inning and never looked back winning the game 5-2. Don't look now, but the Brewers are only 2.5 games out of first place in the NL Central!

A great time...thanks to our host, and loyal High Life Heaven reader, Derrick!
