Here's the conclusion to my opus.  After my trip a couple of weeks ago, we had traveled from Iowa to Missouri, across Indiana into Kentucky and had now backtracked to our final stop... Cincinnati, Ohio.

As I mentioned before, I try to get to a different ballpark each year and we try to hit someplace that the Chicago Cubs are playing.

They were playing a series in Cincinnati, so we figured this would be the final stop on our journey.

Leaving Louisville, it was about a 90 minute drive north until we reached our destination.  After a little driving around, we found our way into the parking area and made our way up to the stadium.

While I'll always love Wrigley Field, I do really enjoy stadiums with a water backdrop.  (San Francisco and Pittsburgh have really beautiful stadiums.)

We made our way up to our seats and sat back to enjoy the game.

After the game we decided to find some food.  My buddy Jeff loves to find places that are highly recommended or the place in town that's known for a food or delicacy.

We drove to a place called Skyline Chili.

In a word, OUTSTANDING.

They had fantastic coney dogs and 3, 4 or 5-way chili.  (To educate you, 3-way is spaghetti, coney and cheese.  4-way is those three things with onion or beans.  A 5-way is all of it.)

If you get through Cincinnati, I really hope you stop and try this.

So that's it... 3 days, 6 states and over 1,200 miles.  Another trip in the books.
