Travels

Friday's travel was largely uneventful. We did have to maneuver, in downtown Philly, past a wheelchair-bound man on our left and a young man who looked like an extra from Mad Max riding a moped on the right. No harm done, thanks to JF's deft driving; but luckily, we have insurance that relieves us of responsibility for not only damage to, but "loss of," the car.

We passed the time listening to music that mostly fits the category a particular friend of mine might call "plhearnican," for Plaintive, Heart-Achey, Earnest, American music.

There's been a slight change of plans, so now's a good time to post our itinerary (some of you have asked, believe it or not). There was going to be one day without baseball, but no longer:

Saturday: Washington, D.C.
Sunday: Pittsburgh, Penn.
Monday: Columbus, Ohio
Tuesday: South Bend, Ind.
Wednesday: Chicago, Ill.
Thursday: Cincinnati, Ohio
Friday: Hagerstown (I don't know -- Maryland? Virginia? Puerto Rico?)

Saturday we drive from D.C. to New York sans baseball, unless we accidentally stumble into the bleachers at a Little League game out of habit. --JW
