    Baseball Game

    Royals At The K

     

    A recent outing to a Kansas City Royals game was an enjoyable evening. The sun was shining giving way to twilight followed by nightfall.  The Royals are playing in a revamped Kaufman Stadium.  The fountains are still there but an expanded outfield experience gives more options for fans to have fun at the game.  It was “College Night”, with happy hour before the game. I have never seen Truman Sports Complex more trashed, not even after a Chiefs game. Lol  Everyone behaved themselves however and it turned out to be a great game.  We lost, but good ballgame anyway.  One more note, beer now costs $7.50!!!  I’m not sure that my first-born child cost that much.

     

    Enjoy,

    The Graduate

    Graduation

     

    This past weekend was a special time. Our youngest graduated from college.  It was especially satisfying to know that he graduated Magna cum laude in the Honors College missing Summa cum laude by only one-one hundredth of a point.  He will continue his education now as he has decided to work on his MBA degree. The nice thing about that to me is that the “college” will be paying for it.

    Bitty Soccer

    Hello, I hope to start posting from time to time again.  I guess it is mostly just a release that I need right now in my life.  My writings may seem random but they will just be me as I transverse from day to day on my journey of life.

     

    Bitty soccer!!!  Yes, soccer for 5 and under.  My grandkids recently suited up and played,  if you could call it soccer.  The 5 year old would really be into it and then be off playing with some baby on the sidelines, leaving the goal unattended.  My 3 year old would not participate. He loved getting dressed up, cleats, and shin guards, player shirt.  He was so proud. But come game time the dirt pile was too intriguing for him.  Finally, at the last game he decided to play.  Play?   Soccer to him meant running and tackling whomever he could find, mostly his brother.  How can one 3-year old disrupt an entire game? 

     

    My opinion?  They are too young.  Result?  It was fun watching them and they got medals at the end.  Success.
