Baseball and beginnings of barcelona






The kids had a late afternoon practice yesterday under a dramatic sky.  I love watching baseball...I remember going to the neighborhood Little League field to watch games as a kid.  At the time I thought it was for the cute boys, but I realize now I had a true love for the game even then.  I was so in the thrall of the rhythm of pitches, catches and hits, and of the gorgeous open sky, that I never made it food shopping.  (We all went afterward.)


Anna and I went out for breakfast yesterday and did some major catching up before she headed home.  I was glad to have company for some shoe shopping for Barcelona.  After my clog incident in Japan I knew I needed some more stable walking shoes.


Lacing them up this morning I had a major flashback to my first pair of "school" shoes.  These shoes remind me of the pair I had in first grade.  I loved those shoes.  These are Keen Presidios and so far, I love these, too.

Play ball!! Awesome!! I hope they have fun. I loved tossing the baseball around with my brothers when we were young and playing in a league.
