Family night at the fireworks

After work was over I met Nick, Dave, Kari, and Mindy at the Lookouts for a baseball game and fireworks. I made it in the 7th inning because one of my patients blew a hole in his femoral artery (he already had a hole there from a procedure that day, it just reopened) and I had to hold pressure forever to get it stopped. Then when I got to downtown there was NOWHERE to park. I drove around for probably 10 minutes looking for a spot and everybody else along with me. I was about to call and tell them I was going home because I couldn't find a spot when I got one.
Kari called some other family members from the game to say hello and tell them we were having fun without them. :-)

So, the Lookouts lost, as usual, but there was some excitement in the 9th when they struck out the other team with bases loaded. The batter even had a temper tantrum and broke his bat on purpose. Afterwards they let everybody out on the field to watch the fireworks across the highway. How often do you see a bunch of people on a ballfield? Walking back to my car they started the fireworks downtown so I saw those, then caught some driving thru Collegedale on my way home. So all in all I saw parts of all 3 displays last night.
