On the way to the baseball game against the
Pittsburgh Pirates we stopped at the Brooklyn Knish shop across the street from
the ball park. They had a food
concession at the park the last few years but didn’t this year. Their knishes are very good and we were
disappointed when they weren’t there this year.
We tracked down their shop, stopped there today to pick up some knishes
for dinner some evening.
The game was a good one for the Phillies; they
won 3-2. Although the game was
officially over after the Pirates were out in the top of the ninth inning, the
Phillies and Pirates agreed to play the bottom half of the ninth inning for
additional pitching and batting practice. The Phillies are also conducting
additional batting practice after the games for those players who didn’t play
in the game and for some of the players who did but didn’t get any hits. So far, I am not sure any of that is working
very well since they are not getting many hits this spring.
After the game we decided to check out three
other RV parks in the area. None are any
better than where we are staying. We have one
other to check out tomorrow but don’t expect anything different than what we
saw today. When we were finished looking
at RV parks, we were near Dunedin so we decided to eat out again. We tried a new place, Pensaro, a wine bar and
Italian bistro in downtown Dunedin. We
split a bruschetta appetizer, Judy had soup and a salad and I couldn’t resist
the Linguine and clams. We also each had
a glass of pretty good house wine.
After dinner, sunset was imminent, so we went
down to the end of the Dunedin pier to watch the sun go down over Clearwater
Beach to the west. We also each had an Irish coffee for dessert from the hotel
bar next to the pier as the sun was setting.
Life is tough here on the vacation frontier.
No ball game tomorrow so we are planning to do
some sightseeing. Judy also has a
follow-up appointment with an orthopedic doctor tomorrow morning regarding her
sciatica event last Saturday. The pain
is a lot better but she still has numbness in her left leg.
