I was really lucky today! I walked around the outside of Wrigley Field and discovered a truck entrance to right field where workmen were busy preparing the park for Opening Day.

I struck up a conversation with 'John', a Wrigley employee who was guarding the entrance. The day was beautiful - about 75 degrees - and we talked for a bit while watching the activity inside the park. John allowed me to venture to the edge of the grass, which was beyond my wildest dreams! I never thought I would be standing inside of Wrigley Field in this lifetime!

Here I am on the first base line looking toward home plate with the Washington Nationals TB in hand.
