This ball park is located in one of our local retirement communities. I’ve seen the guys out playing when driving by in the past and today decided to stop and watch.
There was a very nice gentleman standing in the shade by the fence and I struck up a conversation with him. Seems the guys play every Tuesday and Saturday – five games a day. They’re on teams formed from the community and range in age from late fifties to early eighties!!
It was inspiring to see the hustle and teamwork happening on the field. It’s good to keep moving….slows down the aging process.
PS: We have a winner!!! Mary Beth from Small City Scenes was the first to Guess That Novel!!! It was indeed The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. And, yes, I did tell my father-in-law what the picture was for. :) He was very accommodating and just laughed.
I’ll try and have another Guess That Novel up for Monday. Have a wonderful weekend!!!
