Danny and I kicked off Danny’s baseball career this morning. Cobb county had just been in the news for the long overnight lines that had formed for the limited youth baseball positions.

So Danny and I set out at 9am for Stone Mountain village to get in line for the 10am registration. Three other people were there already. I don’t think they had camped out.

Danny is excited. He was fitted for a uniform that he won’t get until just before the first game.

Oddly enough, he seems most excited about selling his share of raffle tickets.

We got back early enough for the second half of O.M. Kathy was able to get the first scene of “The Grocer’s Daughter” completed. Danny is going to be the stage manager and understudy. He has already come up with a good idea. We will paint grocery store scenes on one side of our background, and turn them around for the next scene in Good Food Land.

It is sunny and warm enough for Kelly to have her first play time on the grass. She propped herself up on her tummy, pulling at the grass, collecting pine needles, and rustling a nearby leaf. Something is emerging around the mailbox. Kathy thinks they are daffodils, which were not there last year when we moved in, so I can’t figure out where they would come from.
