My Month of May, pt. 2 - keepin it local in the NYC

So aside from the travel to and from the Big Apple, I did get a chance to scratch one thing off the NYC Things to do list...and that was see a Yankee game....in the new stadium.

Friends who've went prior raved about the food choices, and food choices there were. Unfortunately, do to the lateness of those who shall not be named :-p, we didn't get a chance to paruse the stadium before the game as originally intended. But, we did have enough time to walk briefly around to find something we wanted to eat - Brother Jimmy's BBQ.

The weather was great and the view of the game...spectacular as we were fortunate enough to enjoy seats a few rows behind those infamous thousand dollar seats. Funny thing about those seats though, was that Benj was wearing a bright red hoodie and a friend of his who was watching the game in LA was able to see him. Even got to see some good action.

the Angels player got hit in the face with a ball.

Thing about the weather...as great as it was, I should have chosen a different type of outfit. Or at least top. Farmer's tans are not very cute for the summer.

And as always, as New Yorkers do, did the food thing all over the city. This city is great.
