Harmony must have improved over there season, their record no where near tells their story. They played a solid game of baseball. We didn’t play our best game for sure, we had a couple of missed opportunities and scored a few runs below our average. Nathan had the only hit with an extra base. They… Continue reading »

Game Ten: @ Dover I
Yet another questionable weather day for a game. No shocker there, this June’s weather has been one to talk about. We drove to Dover to play Dover I and they came ready for a game. We made some fundamental mistakes that nearly cost us the game, but in the end, we prevailed. Nathan took the… Continue reading »

Happy Fathers Day
Well, I was wondering what I’d get for Fathers Day this year. Nathan gave me a band-aid (There’s a story). But of course I was looking for something a bit more… techie. If there is one thing that I haven’t jumped on at the bleeding edge, it’s Bluray. I skipped the whole HD-DVD vs. Bluray… Continue reading »

Free Digital Photography Clinic
This past winter, I was asked if I could show someone how they could use their camera better. That request turned into, “You should give a class!” Several months later, it finally happened. I utilized the churches resources and put on a clinic. I certainly do not claim to be an expert at photography, but… Continue reading »

Game Nine: @ Guilford
More questionable weather was brewing today. We drove to Guilford under gloomy skies but managed to get the game in with only a light mist towards the end. Nathan had the night off as a pitcher so he played 3rd and Short the whole night. He had a decent night of batting with two singles,… Continue reading »

Ship Him Off to Summer Camp
That’s right. We shipped Nathan off to summer camp. Sorta. We get him back every night. And it’s only a mile and a half down the road. He was getting bored at Grammy’s a bit too quickly, so we had to do something. Bangor Christian was having a summer camp also, but it cost a… Continue reading »

Game Eight: Dover II
Nathans buddy’s team came to Charleston today. They’re a decent team and having beat Dexter, who we just lost to, were certainly contenders. We rushed them early and hit the five run rule in the first while holding them to none. They rallied well in the second and did the same to us. Nathan was… Continue reading »

Game Seven: Dexter
Dexter came in for a strong game. Charleston wasn’t ready for it. The only thing we have for excuses.. the kids were on their last day of school. They really weren’t thinking baseball. And about everyone struggled with batting. We managed seven hits… all singles, nothing more. Add in a few walks and we were… Continue reading »

Highway Robbery!
Well, Jess’ trip to CT was tainted with an incident. The conference she was attended ended and she enjoyed herself, so that was good. But as she left the conference to leave, she sat in the car and noticed things weren’t quite right. She was robbed! Someone felt they needed everything inside the car more… Continue reading »

Skipping Stones on the Big Pond
We had a pretty full day fishing, running a few errands and practicing pitching, but Nathan wanted to get as much mileage out of his time alone with Dad as he could. He talked me into going down to the irrigation ponds down back. We hadn’t been down for quite a while so we thought… Continue reading »
