This blog’s my dream come true! Baseball’s been in my blood since I was 6 years old. The garlic fries came later.Dad played minor league ball in Longview, WA back in the 40′s when most small towns in the Pacific Northwest had organized ball of some sort. Well, he didn’t really play in the minors, more like semi-semi minor pro, but to a kid it might as well been the majors!
And in junior high when the other kids had Elvis Presley and Chuck Barry pasted on their lockers I had a full size shot of Mickey Mantle with that glorious bat thrown over his shoulder staring straight at me everytime I opened that locker door. I was obsessed!
Now, many years later, I’m going on an 8 day baseball trip and the blog begins! It’s an organized tour that starts in Baltimore and ends in Chicago and includes the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.
My dream and love of baseball continues and I want to share it with anyone who wants to hear about it! Wordpress to the rescue! I’ve found the perfect venue for my webpage and now I’ll try and figure out how to get this thing posted. Stay tuned……! Ronni Redmond, Santa Cruz CA
Note: This was actually written in May, 2010! It’s now February, 2011, and I’ve written many blogs, but today I finally figured out how to add a “Page”! Things are looking up ……
