New York Vacation: Cooperstown

Cooperstown is adorable, no, charming. Charming is most definitely the right word for it. It was like a real-life version of Main Street U.S.A. at Disneyland. I didn't think that places like that really existed. Jennifer was smitten by it too and had decided that she needed to move there - until talking to a local about the harsh winters. Nevermind. It will have to remain a vacation destination for Jennifer, because she (like myself) grew up in SoCal, and is not willing to live in a harsh-winters kind of place.

But the main reason we visited Cooperstown was not to take in its charm, but to visit

The Baseball Hall of Fame

While there Donald took charge of the camera, because The Baseball Hall of Fame was to him what the Desilu Museum was to me. So later that day when I looked through the pictures I discovered that he had snapped a photo of every baseball, glove, plaque, picture, and jersey that had ever held any significance (or not) in the history of baseball. Like so:
