Baseball on Saturday!

Both Judy and I got a text message from Brenden with the photo below saying he was in Kansas City. So based on the photo - I assumed he was there for work because why else would anyone send their parents the photo - right? Well I was wrong he was there to see the Twins play Kansas City.

He finally did send a group of his friends at the game. The Twins won 7-2.

I wonder if they got their picture on Barstoolsports.com ?

And in Boston - Judy decided to go down to Fenway Park and see if we could get some tickets from a scalper. We did - and actually less than face value. When we got in side - they were in the shade - so we had to move to the bleachers so Judy could sun bathe.

As it turns out - I left after the 11th inning to go home and start grilling supper. Kyle and Judy left after the 13th. After 14 innings teh Red Sox finally won 9-8.


And I just came across this photo on the Camp Coniston Site. Kyle was at a Red Sox game with his friend Kyle from Camp. They obviously had better seats than we did.

Tom Brady playing Touch Football!

Tom Brady helps out a non-profit organization called Best Buddies. Every year he gets some of his friends to play touch football at Harvard Stadium. Tickets were free so Judy and I went last Friday night - 06/03/2011. It was one of the best free events I have ever been to. Judy was very happy as she got to spend two hours watching Tom Brady play quarterback on both teams.

JP Morgan Corporate Challenge 3.5 Mile Race

I ran in the JP Morgan Corporate Challenge last night. (June 2, 2011)
It is a 3.5 Mile Race and it had over 12,000 runners. I ran with some people from CA Technologies. It started out with about 10 of us planning to do it and it ended up with 3 women and myself actually showing up. At least I beat all 3 of them. The race is kind of weird in that it took over 7 minutes before I ever crossed the starting line. My time was 34:14 which is pretty slow. During most of the race, you had to dodge people walking.

What did you do?

Trip to South Haven, Michigan!

Judy and I got invited to a Joe Skuza and June Skoropowski wedding in South Haven, Michigan and decide to go. After I figured out where it was - I emailed my Aunt Beatrice Huss to see if we could meet up with her as she was only about 50 miles away. We ended up meeting up with her and my cousins, Robert, Linda and Patti. The last time I saw Beatrice was 15 years ago.

Bambi Resort to Two Inlets Resort!

My cousin Sandy sent me these photos of her recent trip to see Bambi and our new resort Two Inlets.

I thought I would include one of the first photos I have of our 26 years of going to Bambi. That is Chuck, Sandy, Judy and I in the bar at the lodge drinking at 10:00 in the morning in July, 1985.
