2010 Upper Deck #561 Citizens Bank Park

January is my least favorite month.  My work schedule picks up and I find that days go by without me spending more than a few minutes outside.  I leave for work in the dark and I drive home in the dark.  This week, my daily commute has taken me on Interstate 95 past Citizens Bank Park twice a day.

As I drove home tonight, an optimistic thought crossed my mind as I passed by the ballpark onto the ramp taking me to the Walt Whitman Bridge:  It's almost spring.  In a few short months, the Phillies will be back and the ballpark will come alive with the sights and sounds of baseball.

I can't wait.
