First Ride

The L.A. Angels are in town to challenge the Mariners. Since these teams are in close contention for division lead, special-price tickets were available to encourage fans to come out on a Monday night and give some home-team advantage.
With M returning from Oregon to meet me at the game, I hopped a bus for the first time since moving here to get to the stadium.

M hit a TON of traffic getting out of Portland, and it may be close to game time when she arrives.

I, on the other hand, knowing the horrors of Seattle traffic, leave at 16:30 to get there in time for a 19:00 game.
The buses have "rest areas" at the top of their routes, and the driver usually just hangs out and relaxes for a few minutes before starting the route again.

I hopped on, enjoyed the sun through the window, and drifted in and out of sleep.
