that number once the rally begins!

(5,141 posts)Id be there in a heartbeat if I wasnt going to a friends wedding. I LOVE Boston (and this is from a woman raised on the NY Yankees!). When I was moving back East from California I very nearly ended up there instead of back home in NY. Im due for another trip (though I will be up for some Boston Early Music Festival gigs later this year).
Ill be thinking of you and checking posts from my iPhone at the reception!

(45,251 posts)I was never a sports fan, but was raised among Yankee fans and did, in elementary school, fall in love with Baby Ruth, at least as his biographer romanticized him. (My teacher thought I had been reading too many novels.) My son is, of course, a yooge Red Sox fan, so I've had to adjust.

Babe Ruth is buried about 5 miles away from where I live and there are always bats and balls people leave on his grave.
Your teacher telling you you read too many novels reminds me of Catherine Morland in Jane Austens Northanger Abbey.

(45,251 posts)The funny thing is that the biographies that were recommended for me in elementary school, Lincoln and Babe Ruth, have, in a way, followed me all my life.
