The #OldGal got a 2! What in the world?! Now I’m a bit annoyed.

Good morning! May you choose community today. #MorningMug


Across from our hotel was a lovely park with a fun trail. Plus we got this view from the top of a rather large hill.

The #OldGal also got a 4. Quite the slap in the fact after our 1s yesterday. πŸ˜‚

Yeah! My starting word came in handy today. Sadly, the #OldGal’s did too as she scored an elusive 1 as well. #YoungPups we cannot beat her today. πŸ₯²


Good morning! May you accomplish what needs accomplished today so you can rest this weekend. #MorningMug #MorningBlessing


This Tigers game is crazy!

That #OldGal got a 3 today. She defeated me with ease. Perhaps the #YoungPups will come through with a 2!


Good morning! May you have a day filled with laughter. #MorningMug #MorningBlessing

I’m a little embarrassed by the 3 today. The #OldGal dropped a 5. The #YoungPups shall dominate today, methinks.


There’s just something g wonderful about sitting in the garage on a sunny day enjoying a good book and pipe.


Good morning! May you find time to reflect on all the good in your life today. #MorningMug #MorningBlessing

The #OldGal left the door open for a #YoungPup by also getting a 4. I just couldn’t take advantage. Perhaps she’s just toying with me?

In 2012 my son won MLB’s Breaking Boundaries essay contest and got to spend a day with Sharon Robinson, Jackie Robinson’s daughter.

Today is Jackie Robinson in MLB, it will forever be a special day for us.


It’s always good to get out and swing the sticks with Dad.
