Going to Arizona to watch Spring Training

We’re starting to plan our family holiday for this coming spring, and we’re thinking of doing something different this year, like going to Arizona to see the Chicago Cubs play in the Cactus Leagues as part of their spring training. We’ve never been to Arizona so it would be a bonus to go there. The Grand Canyon would have to be on the list of sites to see.

The Spring Training games are taking place in Mesa, Pheonix, Scottsdale, Tucson, Tempe In March so we’d just have to figure out when we want to go in order to figure out which Spring Training tickets to the Cubs we’d want to purchase.

I think we’d probably go near the beginning of March and if we do most of the games are in Mesa around that time period. They’re being held in Hohokam Park. The best seats are right behind home plate in section 100 row L, but the seats in section 115 row A that are just past first base on the Chicago Cubs side look pretty good too. I guess we’ll have to decide which we want and see what’s available and we should probably do that soon before all the best seats are sold out. Decisions decisions. Nah we’re going to have a great time. I’m even going to see if I can get my brother to get some time off work and come with us. He lives in Chicago and he’s a Cubs fan so I’m sure he’d love to join us.

This little guy, he was just so tired, he stopped in a patch of prickly cactus for a nap.

The hedgehog blends in pretty good doesn’t he? I always thought having a pet hedgehog would be pretty cool but most of the time when I see them they are all balled up and acting defensive so I decided that maybe they weren’t the best pet for me. I’d want one that would interact a bit more- not ball up and try to hide from me in fear.

Do any of my readers have pet hedgehogs? If you do- how do you like them as a pet?
