I was recently out of town for 9 days in the Denver area. Just another excuse for not posting often! I was coaching my 14u travel softball team in the biggest softball tournament in the country. There were about 1100 teams there in total, about 200 of them in our 14u division. We didn't win, but we really didn't expect to. We are 'Washington Good', not California, Texas, Georgia good. We ended up playing 10 games and if they actually awarded places after the top 3, we estimate that we probably were about 45-50th. Pretty great for us.
I got sunburned and tired. Too much heat and too many thunderstorms. One of them, on July 3rd, was awesome. Over 2 hours of constant lightning in the dark. It definitely beat the fireworks on the next evening.
Anyway, this will be the last of my posts about 25 cent oversized crap. As before, everything in this post cost me 25 cents. These are Pinnacle Zenith 8x10s. Very large, kind of pretty. These first 2 are the Dufex parallel.
Oops, I just noticed that the Bonds is cropped too much. Sorry. The McGwire was a need for me, and the others are just kind of awesome. I won't miss the quarters.
Yay! 64 Topps Giant Hank Aaron! Obviously in rough shape, it has a pinhole in the top just into the border. Don't care. I wish I could spend quarters like that every day.
