Well, the trip to Boston for the game was a blast. My day started at 5:00 AM. It was actually a little brutal - At the airport at 7:00, land in Boston at 11:15, wait for luggage till noon. Then to the rental car place for a bit of a cluster then straight to TDBanknorth Garden to watch the Thrashers win the game with 18.7 seconds left. Then back to the car for a drive north to Augusta to see grampy. Check into the hotel at 8:00 then off to dinner. It was definitely a whirlwind day that was worth every minute of stress and exhaustion.
A minute about the fans in Boston. Several people talked to us on our way out of the arena. All of them were absolutely awesome. Even though their team just lost to ours, they were all asking us about our trip and wishing us a good stay in Boston. Class acts.
And then there was this guy. Last year when we went to see a game at Madison Square Garden we ran into another Thrashers fan. He was from Atlanta but going to school in Boston so he decided to come up to the Garden. When we got home we went to a game at Phillips and saw him again. It was a little strange, but understandable since he was on spring break. So here we were sitting in the Boston Garden and guess who plops down next to me to say hi. 15,000 people in the arena and he's sitting two sections over from us. Freaked me out just a little bit.
So now it's Sunday morning and the day is looking beautiful out the window. Highs in the 40s and lows in the 20s. Gonna go see grampy for lunch and then take in some sights.
