On Thursday, I will embark on a road trip to the most hallowed of ballparks. My friend Izzie and I have waited seven long months for this weekend to come, and I can’t believe it’s finally here.

I’ve been to Fenway twice in my life, once in 1994 and once in 1997, the latter being my dream match-up, Red Sox versus Marlins. Both times were thrilling, but with age comes appreciation, and I have a hunch this will be an experience to remember.

For Izzie, this will be a dream come true. She’s never stepped foot in Fenway before, so I can only imagine how spectacular it will be for her when she first lays eyes on the Monster.

I really can't believe this weekend has finally arrived.

After I'm done packing and I drift off to sleep, maybe I’ll have that dream where I’m sitting along the first base line about halfway back eating a hot dog...

On Saturday, that will be my reality.

I’ll be offline for the next several days, taking notes on the wicked hijinx that could only ensue in Beantown, but you’ll hear all about it when I return.

So let the Ladies' Road Trip to Boston begin. Fenway or bust!

Enjoy your Fenway Experience! I don't remember the last time I was there for a game myself, so I'll be there in spirit. Go Sox!!!!
