Day 1.233: Girls, rock

Why break with tradition?

On the eve of a little trip with our current visitors, we inflicted a baseball game on them. We had free tickets because the previous game we attended was rain-delayed and the fireworks had to be cancelled, so we traded them in for tickets to the last firework night of the season.

At the end of the game, before the fireworks, many of the women in the crowd were invited down onto the field where they were greeted by Ray 'Albany, Schenectady and Manchester Vermont' Bleser (the owner of Northeastern Fine Jewelry).


He sent them off to do this:


Until one of them (scrabbling around in the dirt with a spoon) found a half-carat diamond.


We didn't win anything, but we enjoyed the evening and the very rain-delayed (for us anyway) fireworks.
