Beisbol!
Minor League Baseball is known for its promotions and its gimmicks, its weird and wild team names and special jersey nights. As a purist, I don’t always like it.

I’ve no idea where I go or what I’d do when I get there — wherever there is — butContinue reading “That Road Tripping Wanderlust”
Christmas Is a Time for Cats
My friends’ cat Albert. In spite of the name, Albert is not a boy. Welcome to 2022 everyone. May it be a better year than the last two.
