Nationals Cub Scout Game

The family had a fun outing with the Cub Scouts at the Washington Nationals game on April 28th.  Mom dropped off Dad, Pete, and Sam and then drove off to park the car in the cheap lot.  The seats were in the front row (of the upper section), although everyone moved up a few rows to the covered area when it started to rain.

Unfortunately, immediately after the rain started they posted this message on the scoreboard: "Due to the hazardous conditions, the Run The Bases event has been cancelled".  That was pretty lame.

In this picture, you can make out the US Capitol building off in the background (just to the left of Sam's head):




The Nationals lost to the Reds.  The team started out the year as one of the favorites to make the World Series, but it has not been as good a year as expected.

The boys found a very cool "Transportation Walk" on the way back to the car, by the Navy Yard.  This might have been the best part of the entire outing.





By the way, the mystery item Pete is holding under the towel in several of the pictures is his leftover french fries that he brought all the way home, and which sat in the refrigerator for a few days.
