Day 1

All Star Saturday for our Little League. Arrived at the field at 7:30 am. It was a beautiful day, and I was alone. Raked the field and line it. It really looked good. Hang balloons on the outfield fences. Still alone. Start to line the next field and realized that I need to get home again and bring back my own All Star. Got back at about 9 and in the 20 minutes since I had left about 20 other families had arrived and the place was hopping. Our game ended in a 5-5 tie which I thinks great for 10 and 11 year olds. My older son also umpired his brother's game. He also went on and umpired 2 other games that day which meant that I was watching little league games until about 4 pm. Went to the pool for a couple of hours. Started the summer season with a Tecate at poolside. Also had an Avery IPA. Took the boys to see the Avengers at the Movie Tavern. Great idea to be able to eat dinner while watching a movie. Had "The Works" pizza which hit the spot although probably just an average pizza but I was starving. The movie was excellent and a lot of fun. Finally home by about 10 and crashed.

Day 0

Friday before Memorial Day. Office closed at 2:30. Home at 3:30, pick up my boys 4:00 At the Little League field prepping it for the night's game. My team wasn't playing but one of the other coaches needed a hand. I took a good hour and a half. I was really muddy and wet by as other Dads came we got it ready. My oldest son was umpiring and he asked if I would umpire the bases which I love doing. The game was one sided but that is Little League. We got home about 8:30 very tired but happy.

100 Days of Summer

I know we don't have 100 days of summer but we have about that many between Memorial Day and Labor Day. It is a great time of the year. The weathers better, school is winding down for the kids, the pool is open, and vacation plans come together. I have been away for a while but I thought I would document the days from the start of Memorial Day weekend to the end of Labor Day weekend. Nothing more that places, drinks, activities, food. Just stuff. Let's see where it goes.
