Rain, Trains, Automobiles and...Baseball

We celebrated Jeff's dad's birthday at a Rockies vs Padres baseball game at Coors Field. Jeff and I drove about an hour north of the Springs and took the light rail to downtown Denver. We walked around the 16th street Mall and then met Jack and Lennyce for the baseball game. Unfortunately, 15 minutes into the game we experienced a torrential downpour. Luckily we had umbrella's but after the crowd dispersed we took cover until the storm passed.
A huge tarp was laid down to protect the field from the rain.
An hour later the game resumed. The weather turned beautiful and the Rockies won!
After the game we boarded the crowded light rail. Standing room only and several delays it was a long ride back to our car. We arrived home at 1am completely exhausted.
