Hanging out at Principal Park with ... Mr. Potato Head!

Yes, Linda and I were just at an I-Cubs game but there was a Mr. Potato Head give-away at this one! We hustled over to the ball park to be among the first in line to be sure to get our I-Cub Mr. Potato Heads. Funny what free stuff can get a grown-up to do, isn't it? Just inside the gate, there was the real Mr. Potato Head posing for pictures, chatting with the kids, having a pretty good time.

We found our way to our seats, assembled our toys and snapped a couple of photos. I was puzzled by the odd attachment of the bat at the elbow of Mr. Potato Head's right arm but figured it was just that way; the next day at work, the third co-worker to stop by explained that I needed to rotate the arm so the bat was pointed down so Mr. Potato Head could lean on it... aha!

It was another great night at the ballpark. The sunset was beautiful, the pitching was right on, and the Cubs posted another win over Omaha, 10-4.
