details matter #30dates30days

i would like to share details about a date with the wife in which i was selected for on august 15th , 2013.  the company called details matter have created an app that lets you search for ideas about something different than movie and dinner dates.  we chose the brickyard batting cages followed by a padres game at petco park for our date.
we had a full hour of cage-time

the staff were friendly and courteous and even allowed us to split the time between slow-pitch softball, baseball, and real fast baseball with real baseballs. i was sore the next few days but it was fun and a good work-out for both of us (i hit some 90 mph fastballs too)

for the next part of the date we headed downtown to the padres game. one of our first dates together was also a padres game but they played in mission valley back then. since the mets were in town there was a pretty good crowd that night so we parked at the tailgate parking lot next to the ball yard.  we sat in good field seats for the first few innings and then we remembered that hodads was upstairs.  really good burgers and beers took the next few innings as we watched on the tv and we checked the view from some empty toyota terrace seats for the end of the game.

so the date was a lot of fun and i always like going to the padres games...especially with the wife.
