Friday – Date Night at the Twins game

We decided last night that we were going to head to Minneapolis for a couple of days and we were going to leave after work on Friday. 

Sounds like Fun! 

So it was kind of a late night getting everything ready and to be packed, so after work I could literally switch clothes and be ready in just minutes. See we bought Twins baseball tickets last night and the game was for Friday night. We didn’t have much time to waste if we wanted to get there on time, so that’s where I needed to be organized! 

Well I got out of work on time and beat it home just in time for Daryl to be standing all cleaned up in the kitchen and ready to go. It didn’t take me long and soon we had our sunglasses on and heading North to the cities. We met so many people on the road we weren’t sure if it was because it was a holiday weekend or if everyone was so excited that we’ve actually had some nice weather and was ready to get out and enjoy it. Whatever the case, the roads were crowded. 

Once we got checked into our hotel, we made it to the stadium in perfect time. We had a couple of minutes to grab something to eat and drink and to find our seats. It was an absolutely perfect night for a ball game.

The game didn’t turn out so well and with the Twins losing, so we headed out a little early from the game and went downtown to see what was going on there. And for a night time snack? Check this out – Grilled hotdog covered in Mac and Cheese. Yea, not really on anyones diet plan now is it? Now it might look kinda gross, but honestly it was awesome!

As we were walking around downtown we saw quite a few people standing outside this one theater. Check out who was performing – it is Prince’s original band!!!!

It was a great date night and with us staying overnight in the cities, I’m sure we’ll find something fun also to tomorrow too!
