I haven't been to a baseball game in about eight years. Here we are yesterday... Scott and Gretchen at Camden Yards in Baltimore (officially Oriole Park at Camden Yards) watching the Orioles beat the Texas Rangers. Gorgeous ballpark. Gorgeous day. May 28, 2023.
My Discogs List of Bands I’ve Seen in Concert
How many bands/artists have you seen live in concert? Since I'm "old" now, I've seen a few dating back to about 1981, actually the 1970s, but while I've seen a decent number, I pale in comparison to many other people I know.

We humans are affirmation seekers, and it’s not always a bad thing. I try to show appreciation for the blogs I follow so that the writers will know I appreciate the effort.
So, please admire this average photo, but remember that I appreciate every like and comment. 😁
