BASEBALL SEASON COMES TO AN END



After starting baseball practice back in late February my 2007 baseball season came to an end last night with an 8-7 loss to Matoaca in Appomattox League action. We put up a valiant effort but we just came up short. It doesn't appear that we will be playing softball this year so it looks like my arm will get an extended break. The blog sure has been dead the last few days, it's like everybody's on vacation but I know there not. I might have to cut back my daily entry do to the lack of interest. I didn't post any new construction pictures because it still looks the same right now, the electrician was here all day doing some wiring though. So far this morning I haven't seen anybody yet. Keith how did Andrew's team do yesterday? I was going to post another old photo today but they are on the old computer and that computer not accessible right now. MICKEY
