1 Week Away!

Guess what? One week from today at this very moment Rose and I will be speeding southbound on I-75 headed for a week of Spring Training in Lakeland! Can't wait to hear the bat hit the ball and smell the leather of the gloves! Man oh man. Baseball at last. Warm weather at last.

So far this spring word out of Lakeland is positive. Players seem to be healthy and as usual everything is right with the world in Feb/March. We will see when April hits! Starting pitching will be the whole deal. If they pitch, the Tigers should compete. IF they don't it will be another long summer. Can't wait to be sitting in the stands behind home plate. Hereing the chatter, eating a hot dog and having some peanuts!

Whistlestop for breakfast and Sonny's Real Pit BBQ for dinner! And Baseball in between. This year will be a 30 year celebration of sorts. Feb 17th marked Rose and I 's 30th anniversary....seems like only yesterday!

I will try and post from Lakeland, but then again who cares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
