Visit to Cooperstown This Weekend (Picture Heavy)

My family and I took the weekend off and traveled up to Cooperstown to visit the Baseball Hall of Fame. I hadn't been in 20 years, and I remembered why as we were on the road: there is no easy way to get there. No matter how you go, all you have is winding, hilly roads with farms, horses, and cows, and the ride is really long.

My older son said this was the best part of the Hall of Fame, particularly the T206 Gretzky Honus Wagner, though he didn't think the 1952 Topps Mantle deserved a 10 because it looked like it had a small gum stain on the lower right border.

The man who owned this Vet said he drives up every year from Pennsylvania to showcase it.

Tony,

Thanks for sharing! Glad your family and you had a fun time. It's probably been 20 years since I have been there as well ... guess it's time for another visit!

Awesome pictures Tony! I've never been to Cooperstown, it is on my bucket list. Maybe within the next couple of years I will finally bite the bullet and go.

Thanks for posting the pics.

Great pictures. Our oldest son and I , almost went there about 3 weeks ago. We decided to climb some mountains instead . I had the best father's day weekend EVER , but Cooperstown sure would've been VERY nice as well.

I've been there 2 times before , but hope to comeback soon. Thanks for sharing.--- Sonny
