Duck, Duck... No, seriously, DUCK!

We went to another baseball game yesterday and was very pleased with the outcome despite the fact that we had to drive clear to Mount Sterling, OH for the game.

The score was 16-6 and our team WON!  They had such a good time.  As shown in the video, Christopher (and the other players on our team) was doing a lot of defensive moves to prevent interactions between their bodies and the ball.

I remember a few games ago,  Christopher took a direct hit from a fastball in the belly (just below his sternum).  I will say that there is plenty of sounds that are excruciating to hear and that was one.  It actually knocked the wind out of him for a time but sucked it up (no pun intended) and took his base like a champ.

On the other side of my grandkids, Cameron was running around during the games playing with the other kids around the park and a big part of his audience was girls...  That's my grandkid!

Play Ball!

Christopher
Last night Peggy and I went to another ball game.  Chris did not get on base this time.  He can usually get on base in a game, but this team was a bit above our team. 
The game was in Orient, Ohio so it was a little bit of a trip and believe the next one or two games might there or someplace other than our usual field.
I was expecting the game to be called because we had these pop-up showers and it was expecting to rain.  It turned out that we didn't get any rain and the temperature dropped to where I went back to the car and got a sweatshirt for Peggy.  I thought it was excellent.
After the game, Peggy and I went to Kroger to pick up a few things for my Mother-in-law and get some protein bars for work (for me).  I have been enjoying the CLIF Builder's Protein Crunchy Peanut Butter.  They contain 20 grams of protein and taste great.

This morning was supposed to be raining also but was able to walk from my parking garage to the office. (Typically a 10 to 12-minute walk if going at a good clip).

Okay, enough for this morning.
