101 in 1001: Day 83

I've been working on my 101 in 1001 list. I've completed 2 items and made progress on another 4! I really felt like I had done more than this... I guess I need to get cracking!

Start Date: February 17, 2009
End Date: November 15, 2011
Number Completed: 10 of 101

Completed

#51. Go to minor league baseball game (5.2.09)
Several weeks ago we went to Connecticut for a weekend of tri-training. We took the opportunity on Saturday night to go see the Connecticut Defenders, a Double A team for the San Francisco Giants. They were playing Portland, a minor league team from the Red Sox and won 5-2. I have to say that Minor League games are awesome. Field level tickets are $8, beer is 2 for $6 and they have a lot of highly entertaining activities between innings (like tug-o-wars and sumo wrestling).







#80. Make plans with a new friend (5.9.09)
I made a new friend at my bookclub and on Saturday we headed to SELF Workout in the Park. We had a ton of fun with the mini-workouts and yoga classes. Plus, lots of free goodies and giveaways!









In Progress

#10. Drink 20 new types of beer (6 of 20)
I'm actually trying quite a few new beers but I forget to write them down and then I don't remember which ones I tried. I'm hoping my new iPhone will help with this so I can just take a picture for now on! The only one I remember is...


6) McSorley's Old Ale - I liked this quite a bit. Good flavor and not too strong. It probably tasted even better since it was free because I accidentally stole it from the grocery store (I left it on bottom of the cart)!



#52. Visit 3 new baseball stadiums (1/3)
We've been to the new Yankees Stadium for several games now. My favorite new feature is a toss up between the cup holders and the elevators from the Grand Stand to the main concourse.



#84. Donate blood three times (1/3)
After a month of iron supplements my iron was back up and I successfully donated blood for the first time! The experience went really well and I had no complications. I'm going back again in June!

#93. Buy fresh flowers once a month for a year (2/12)
I continued my tradition and brought home a beautiful bouquet of spring flowers in April.

I love your updates! One of my goals is to donate blood once a quarter. My iron was low Saturday and I'm going back Thursday to try again. I hope I don't have to go on supplements because I'm already horrible about remembering my vitamins.

Ugh, I really need to write an update on my 101 in 1,001...I've been neglecting it terribly.

I definitely think that the new Target Stadium should be one of the three new stadiums you visit. Can't wait for the Twins to actually play in a baseball stadium!
