Card fans have NOTHING to cheer about. Mr. T sings the 7th inning stretch. Thunderbirds, C-17, F-22 & F-16 flyovers.

Scrub, fix busted pieces, condition, sand, two coats of stain, and ten hours later, you get the chair on the left. One down, seven more to go.

We just returned home from an Iceland cruise with our next-door neighbors. I had a great time and every Icelander we met made sure to tell us how lucky we were to experience the best wether in recent memory.

The tickets that scroll thru (too quickly) have a year and a goofy Bob selfie. I spent the past 4 summers traveling, meeting some great folks, and having a wonderful time. 2/2

On 12 Jun 2026 I saw a Twins game at Target Field and crossed off the last spot on the 30 current MLB ballparks. I also included the HOF, Field of Dreams and Negro Leagues Museum. I made my own arrangements at most parks, and some I attended as part of several baseball tours. 1/2

A mash-up of the second semester.

I just completed a solo road trip to see the Florida Major League Ballparks - and lots of other local attractions. I had some ups-and-downs, but no issue that bug spray, sun screen and rain gear couldn't solve.

LAX Girls from Wednesday. The rain stopped just in time for the start of the competition. STC Co-op came away with the victory.

Last weekend's game against Bartlett. Things got tight near the end but the girls came out on top 4-3 for Senior Recognition.

@AvatarKyber Fast forward to 20:24 and listen to her howls and "I will kllll them!"
Could be audio effects but the last line sounds demonic.

Over the weekend the Boys LAX Co-op faced a hard-hitting Hampshire squad. STC came out on top with a double digit win.

The Co-op girls scored two quick goals in the opening minutes but fell behond in the second quarter. One of the goals was a backhand - which i've never seen and had to look up.

It was a fine day for a dual meet. Thanks to Coach Kap for posting this week's schedule so I could plan for the field events yesterday. Best of luck to the boys tonight and the girls Saturday.

It's only April, and I've been to just one meet, but quite a few squad members should make plans for Charleston 21 May.

This was the nicest squad of athletes - they all thanked me way too many times for taking photos. Also, this might be the best group photo I've taken in quite a while - and I usually hate taking group photos.

Quick hits from the McCornack Invite at STCE 11 April. The meet was so smooth and well-run that it didn't seem there were squads of Varsity and JV from eleven schools at the meet.
