Some cool stats on the Baseball Adventure

We have two weeks left on our big trip that started over a month ago and here are some little tid-bits on the trip:

  • Days away from home - 34
  • Number of states driven through - 22 (Arizona, California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey) and Ontario, Canada
  • Number of countries - 2 (U.S. and Canada)
  • Total number of ballparks visited - 19
  • Total number of games seen - 14
  • Total number of tours - 5
  • Record of the home team when we see a game - 7-7
  • Number of extra-inning games - 2 (home teams won both games)
  • Number of rain delays - 1
  • Total miles traveled - 8,077
  • Total times Michael has asked to go home - 1 (right as we arrived in Denver after 3 days of driving)
  • Page visits by others to our blog - 3,321 (recently been averaging about 180 per day)
  • Number of baseball movies seen in the car - 6 (Bad News Bears - Michael's favorite)
  • Number of times interviewed about the trip - 3
  • Number of times blog has appeared in the news or has been linked - 4
  • Number of times we've had to yell at Michael and Andie for fighting each other - Too many to count


If there's anything someone wants to know about the trip so far, please feel free to ask by submitting a comment.  The question I get the most is how is Michael holding up so far (fine and he's not asking to go home yet) and am I sick of driving yet (no but we have some really long trips coming up once we leave Baltimore and it will be tough as it is near the end of the trip).
