Another Big Crowd

The crowd yesterday was the largest since the sellout game last week. There were 9341 fans to watch the KC Royals beat the Texas Rangers in a game that matched the two teams that share this facility. It was interesting to see the car haulers again this year loading the players' vehicles to take to their home cities. There were the usual Mercedes, BMW's, Range Rovers and exotic trucks that these free spending players drive around town. They better enjoy it while they can.

Of course, nothing was done on our fifth wheel yesterday and they fulfilled their commitment to not do anything for a week. That assumes that something might get done tomorrow, the start of our second week here. I talked to the service advisor before the game yesterday and told him we needed to get our holding tanks emptied. He would have done that yesterday had we been able to stay home long enough. They will move the rig, slides out and all, to the dump station they have here and then set it back in the space tomorrow AM. They also handed me the estimate for the work to be done - almost $4200. They still haven't contacted our extended warranty company to get approvals for anything, so we will have to wait until at least tomorrow to find out what will be done, and what will not be done because we aren't going to pay for any of the slideout repair or the hydraulics repair.

In the meantime, we have our next to last game of the spring training season today. It will take some serious thought before we consent to return next year. We are very disappointed with the changes that were implemented this year, and so are many others that have returned. We have made many friends that we would miss seeing, but the work isn't worth the pay the way it is being run now. There is plenty of time before we need to decide on that issue...
