Baseball, Peanuts and Hot Sunny Days

Today and Sunday my brother and I have been getting out the old baseball mitts and baseballs and have been playing catch. Ok so I'm pretty horrible at it and get pretty tired of constantly leaning over to pick the ball up off the ground but I'm getting so much better.

I don't watch baseball often but when I do I enjoy it. And it takes me back to the late eighteen hundreds. When I was younger we went to an "old" baseball game. It was so much fun! Everyone was in their nineteenth century clothes, the crowd was sitting on the ground, everyone was in a big open field. No one wore baseball gloves and Woman Rights Activists would randomly interrupt the game by walking across the field carrying their signs. It was so much fun!





Sometimes I wish it could be like the old days (meaning 20s - 50s) when all the boys in the neighborhood would go to a near by field or baseball field and play ball for hours on end. People could walk by and watch, I know I would have. Sometimes it's more fun to watch kids playing then intense men competing.

Ahh to have a dream...
