At 36 years old, I decided that it was finally time for me to take a pilgrimage to what many refer to as baseball’s mecca, the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. I found it to be both an interesting and an inspiring place, and there is plenty there for Chicago Cubs fans to take in as well.
The timeline section of the tour of the museum, which takes up a good portion of the first part, pays homage to both the Cubs of the 1906-1908 era that won three straight NL pennants and two World Series titles and the 1929/1932/1935/1938 NL pennant-winning teams.
