The males of the family have embarked on the first leg of our baseball journey without me. They sound very happy and have reported that Atlanta is a cool town.  Their peak experiences so far:

-  Took the subway from the airport to their hotel

-  Found a good steakhouse

-  Hotel room has great flatscreen t.v. (but they said I would not like the hotel because their view is of a brick wall)

It is hitting me that, for me, this will not be one of those life-altering vacations.
