Camping on the Field

Last night we went to watch the Mudhens beat the Rochester Redwings on a gorgeous night for baseball.





Before the game Becky and Alex put on their Scout uniforms and led off a parade through the infield.





Afterwards we watched a great fireworks display over the outfield wall. Then, after the non-Scout families left the stadium, we came back in with our camping gear. We watched the Detroit Redwings lose the Stanley Cup on the big screen, then they played the Disney movie "Bolt".





We had popcorn and hot chocolate during the movie woth another Scout from Alex's den and a long walk to the bathroom from our prime centerfield campsite.





They finally turned out the lights at 1AM, but played country songs to wake us up at 6:30.





We hauled our gear to the van and our tired backsides to a waffle house, where Aaron learned the joys of having bacon bits cooked into your waffle. As you might expect, we spent the rest of day resting up from our adventure - and planning next year's sleepover.
