Baseball Discussion

Some pitching discussion at a high school baseball game.

Pitcher

Abilene offers summer league baseball teams for the high school players.  After all the years of being here, I finally got a chance to go to one of the games with a friend of mine whose grandson was playing today.

White Pitcher

Another still-life taken in the house because it's too hot to be outside.  I love this little ceramic pitcher with blue trim.  I was at an antique store with a friend who was going to buy it for his photo studio, but then he changed his mind so now I own it.  Sometimes I put flowers in it but most of the time I just display it as is.

My heart is grateful for:

Toothpicks

Years and years ago my parents went to Florida for vacation~~it was a huge thing for them to go so far away and they had a good time.

Mom brought back a couple of these toothpick holders and this is the one I chose.  It's still on my kitchen counter and I think of her often because of it.  

She passed many years ago and there are still times when I think of something I'd like to share with her but then remember it's not possible.

Communicate with those you care about and love as much as possible while you have the chance.  If you don't, there will come a day when you'll long for those lost opportunities.

My heart is grateful for:
