Bang the Drum, pt. 2

My wife would like me to point out to all of you baseball fans which hand our little "drummer"/future pitcher prefers.

I Don't Wanna Work...

Have you ever heard the song, "I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day"? I believe this is where the song writer most have gotten his inspiration!

Fun in WA















We're Moving...!

We don't know where, but we are pretty sure we will have moved from Port Charlotte before Spring Training begins next Spring, because we got the following announcement this last week....

Orioles move spring home to Sarasota

The Baltimore Orioles agreed to a 30-year lease with Sarasota County that calls for more than $31 million in funds for the renovation of Ed Smith Stadium. The move will happen immediately, starting with Spring Training 2010. Baltimore will play in Ed Smith Stadium without renovation for one spring and development will commence after the 2010 season.

Just before Charity and I moved to Florida, fourteen years ago her grandparents who had wintered in Ft. Myers for many years chose to move to Loma Linda full-time. That same year the Orioles moved their Spring Training sight across the state about five hours from where we were going to be living. A year after being in Orlando, the Chicago Cubs single A farm team moved out of town. The year we moved from Orlando, Ledo's opened a restaurant in town. This last year the Tampa Bay Rays moved their Spring Training sight to Port Charlotte and Cal Ripkin, Jr. bought and moved their farm team to Port Charlotte. Now the Orioles are moving their Spring Training within 45 minutes of our house!

It seems that everytime something good happens or is about to, we move!
