Fenway Park is home to the Boston Red Sox, who are a Major League Baseball team. Fenway was built in 1912 and is the oldest Major League Baseball Park in the country. It was designed by James McLaughlin and is still his most notable design. I have had the privilege of visiting Boston a couple of years ago. While I was there, I got to watch the Boston Red Sox Championship team play against the Seattle Mariners in 2018. I grew up a Red Sox fan and had always dreamed of sitting in Fenway and watching David Ortiz hit a home run over the Green Monster. While I didn’t see David Ortiz or a home run hit over the Green Monster, I still got to enjoy the beautiful architecture that Fenway had to offer. As a lifelong Red Sox fan, it is something that I had always dreamed of and will never forget.

I am hoping that one day I am able to take my son or daughter to Fenway and get to have that same memory that I have with my father. The happiness and joy that I experienced with my father is something that I will cherish forever. It felt as though I was standing in the middle of a history textbook. It is one of our favorite memories that we got to share together and I look forward to the day that I get to share the same thing.
