Baseball Exhibit at State Fair
First my apologies for not posting yesterday and posting late today. The weather is beginning to change - of course, it’s fair time - and I always get a cold when the weather changes. The good news is the weather is changing. The bad news is I felt like garbage.
There are plenty of things at the State Fair to see and do beside the rides, the midway, the shows, and stuffing yourself with all things fried. The Women’s Museum, the African American Museum, and the Hall of State all have wonderful exhibits and are included in the park admission. The Museum of the American Railroad is a wonderful step back in time and worth the minimal extra admission.
If you are a baseball fan, for just an extra $1 at the Museum of Nature and Science, you can see the “Baseball as America” exhibit organized by the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, New York. The display examines the influence of baseball on fan experience, physics and technology, pop culture, racial integration, and others. You can see a Honus Wagner baseball card which I understand to be one of the rarest. Among other things, you can see the baseball tossed out by Cy Young in 1903 in the first World Series.

Have a good day and peace be with you.
