Day 30 – July 8 – Oakland, California (continued)




Nothing like a little extra inning baseball to make it seem like the trip that would ever end. However the game did end and we have accomplished what I didn’t think was possible. The 4 of us have been to all 30 major league ballparks and watched 30 baseball games in 30 days. And to do this with my son, brother and nephew has made it even more special. But the trip isn’t over yet. We still have to negotiate the nearly 800 miles up Interstate 5 back to Washington State and the home base in Federal Way. We had a great time again today with Corey who joined us earlier in the trip when we were in San Francisco and came back to help us celebrate the finish of the trip. After the game we decided to celebrate at a restaurant that Corey really wanted to go to, Scott’s Seafood Bar & Grill at Jack London Square in Oakland. It sits right on the bay so the view was fantastic. It was without a doubt one of the best seafood dinners I have ever eaten. We all just loved it and spent plenty of time winding down and reviewing the trip with Corey. I’d like to give a special thanks to Corey for being there at both ends of the trip. I decided to get this out before we hit the road. I will post about the trip home when we get there.

  1. It was a great way to end the 30 days with an extra inning game. I am glad we were able to meet up at both game in the Bay Area, my only wish is that I could have visited the other 28 ball parks with you guys. Listening to the stories and the places you visited were amazing and really made me want to do this trip as well. Safe travels bak up to the northwest.
