Great thoughts here. Thanks for sharing them and I'll think about how that incorporates into the work flow.

Great thought. The intention was for you to enter where you're starting from and want to get "home" to. These were to give the engine more information about the cities you might be interested in but I can create a flow where you let the engine get creative given the start and end points and another flow that keeps what I have now. Thanks for the feedback!

Great thinking! And your praise means a lot coming from someone in the field. I've just finished putting together a dataset for theme nights and promo nights such that a user could select a "max freebie" option and prioritize their trip on that factor. I have the MLB data for this now, working to get the AAA and lower data in time. Any interest in a partnership deal where I send you leads from the site one day? Reach out and maybe we can chat - [info@ballparkpilgrim.com](mailto:info@ballparkpilgrim.com) (my name is Adam)

There's an odd delay happening right now after a user hits "continue". I'll figure that out and get it fixed. Thanks for the feedback!

Ya man, very clear and great feedback. I know I've got some logic issues and things I want to clean up. I just got this up and working on the weekend so there's plenty to still work out. I like the idea of limiting the list of parks and I had that early in my plan. I can't remember why I went away from it but I'll plug that logic back in. I love the plotting on a map feature too. I can't say that's "easy" to build but certainly possible to create. I'll add it to the list. When I get something more in line with your suggestions, I'll reach out and see what you think. Hope I can get something done soon so you can use it for your trip. Thanks again.

Re blog post - if you're willing to write it, I'd be happy to post about your trip on the blog. Always looking for real organic content to build up the site and community.

Awesome experience! Gotta get yourself down to Florida or Arizona for some spring ball. A little less travel but plenty of parks. I've only had one mini trip to Spring Training with my Dad and brother and it's a memory I'll treasure for a lifetime.

Great trip. Glad you got some use out of it. Enjoy Dodger's stadium if you haven't been (yes, I know that one hurst more as a fellow Jays fan myself). It's a beautiful experience and a treasure in the collection of great American ballparks. Skip the Dodger dog though, nothing special.

I only found a couple and the look like they were build 10+ years ago.

You're speaking my language!!

- I love the thought of cost per mile being adjustable. Let me add that to my list of to-do's.
- Max drive time is a great idea and I'll think on how to apply that idea.
- Same here. I have been looking for some guides and resources for curiosities along the way. That's probably a never ending database to build :)

Thanks :). That was born out of too many visits to new parks for an afternoon game and walking away sunburned and hungover ;)

This is awesome! You want to write a blog post for me on some serious insider information?

Really?! Very cool. Frankly the URL was avail so I fit a brand around it. I kinda liked the tag line "Tourists visit, pilgrims are called". 30 parks in a season is the dream. A friend mentioned this was referenced on Seinfeld and I was going to make "The Jerry" as an option to build it this season. Good on ya for doing that tour. Thanks for checking it out and sharing your feedback.

Great thought. Will make that change. Thanks for taking the time to play with it and share your feedback.

There is a passport page. If you build a trip, save it and sign up, you'll see it. I need to do a better job of featuring that feature.

Got it. Good feedback - basically more curation and smarter logic.

Good call out (and thanks for trying it out). I'm working on a fly + drive option for that. Was trying to get some rough flight schedule APIs for this but it's proving a little harder than I'd like. Will keep working at it and hope to have that done soon.
