Hurrah. The long baseball season is over! Danny’s All-Star team won the tournament in one of the most exciting contests any of us have seen. After coming from behind by 2, the Mountain Park All-Star’s beat Lilburn 3 to 2.

Nicole (who is exhausted by having to go to all these baseball games and practices) and I (who have to keep changing from work clothes into shorts in the hot van) are glad the season is over.

Kathy will miss the season, but could not be happier because, afterall, son Dan got a big hit and got to play catcher, including some aggressive defense at the plate (from his own teammates.)

Kelly will miss playing with Katy Steel, covering herself with dirt, and trying to sneak away.

Mary Claire can take the whole thing or leave it. And Charlie will be glad that we don’t keep going away every evening for so long.

Grandad, Gramalie, Uncle Ted, Gradpa, and Grama Jennette also attended. All agreed it was a very exciting game. But it was most exciting for the moms, none of who sat down.

I sat down the entire time because of my stressed lap condition which will insure that Kathy and I give no more baseball players to the world.

On to the county swimming finals with Nicole and Danny’s backstroke!!!
