Leap Day '08!

It's not every day you get to blog on February 29th. Actually it's every four years! But you know that! This pic is from our 2005 trip to KC. We took a pic automatically and then an usher came over and asked us if he could take our pic. Just like NY !?!
Shira and I plan on going to DC sometime this year for my 20th stadium.

N.L.B.M.

The Negro League Baseball Museum is located in Kansas City. It is not a Hall of Fame but a history of the defunct league that existed before and for a brief time after Jackie Robinson's debut in MLB. At the time of our visit Buck O'Neil was still alive but he was not at the museum. Last year Buck passed away, ever the gentlemen Buck was never publicly miffed at not being placed into Cooperstwon Hall. Hopefully one of these days MLB will get it right and honor Buck O'Neil. The NLBM shares the premises with the Jazz Musuem and is well worth the visit if one is ever in KC.

*Snow Day*

Crazy, snowy day here! My bro locked his keys in his running car while we were shoveling our parking spots. To commemorate this snowy day how about a pic from Canada!

Wheels, Bovines, & Wreaths

This photo was taken during my third and briefest trip to Cooperstown. Just paying my respects to the Scooter who departed this earhtly plane in summer 07. This upcoming softball season will be dedicated to his memory.

Schmidt Mitt!?!

Philadelphia 2005- Shira and I outside Citizen's Bank Ballpark at the Mike Schmidt statue. Games we've been to since the park opened:

June 12, 2005 vs. Milwaukee Brewers
May 20 & 21, 2006 vs. Boston Red Sox
August 30, 2007 vs. New York Mets

Head First Into '08!

Almost a year with this blog and about 50 posts AND I still haven't posted my St. Loooie Card pics?!!? Here is the Cardinal sliding under the tag of the Wizard of Oz, Hall of Famer Ozzie Smith!

Pitchers, Catchers, Congressman Report

It's ironic that Bonds, Clemens, and Sosa may all end up eligible for the Hall of Fame the same year. It seems all three will have a hard time getting in without paying admission. I hope they have AAA because they'll at least get the rebate. In this pic I'm posing near the Gwynn Shrine. Shira is at the Ripken shrine.
