Rain, Rain, Rain....

Today Jeremy and I left Maine to head back into Boston. It was a gorgeous morning as we left Maine, but as we began to approach Boston, the weather was getting cloudy and rainy looking (really snowy looking). I was already trying to figure out where I would "hide out" during the Red Sox vs. Rays game because sitting in cold rain was just not going to work real well with me. Today was opening day for the Red Sox. We had no idea this was taking place when we planned on going to the game. The best part is, they are playing the Tampa Bay Rays so it could not have been more exciting to get to see the two play or hope that we get to see them play, especially after last season. Everyone we came in contact with just "assumed" that we would be pulling for the Red Sox and Jeremy very politely pulled out his Rays hat to show them otherwise. By about 10:30, I get a text from my friend Kelly, whose husband plays for the Rays. She says the game is cancelled and Jeremy immediately says "you are lying, who told you that" with this look on his face like "it can't be!!!!". She did proceed to tell us that the game was postponed for tomorrow afternoon and she could still get us tickets. He was much better and much more excited at that point. I have to admit, I was relieved too because the weather should not be anything like today. I hear that going to Fenway Park is wonderful and a baseball field Jeremy wants to say he went to and watched a game at.

Because of the rain that was moving in, we did take some long walks through the city and down Newberry Street before it actually started raining. We had lunch and then ended up at the indoor malls because it started pouring. After much shopping, we came back to the hotel to relax and Jeremy wanted to watch the game. We have a full day planned for tomorrow. Again, pictures will come soon, but nothing good from this rainy day. GO RAYS!
