Stroll down memory lane

No surprise to people that know me, but I was a bit of a tomboy growing up. It’s not that I don’t like pretty things, dolls, dressing up, etc. (shoes are still good accessories absolutely-necessary-goods to get if one has the cash), so I still was a girlie-girl [tee-hee].

Another season opens!

It’s the start of another season! [Major League] Baseball, of course. Opening Day is today, Monday, April 6th, and hopes are high for another interesting year, maybe without a steroid dabacle even.

Take me out the ball game

The smell of Astroturf is in the slightly chilled Spring air!
It’s time once again to check in with my favorite minor league baseball player,  pitcher Adam Cowart. When we last left him, he had just helped the San Jose Giants (Single A advanced minor league team of the SF Giants organization) win the California [...]
