It's the end of the world as we know it

Mid-March, and yet it seems like the year is already flying by.
Already out of the NCAA Men's Basketball tournament pool when Wisconsin got beat yesterday, what's there to look forward to now?
Getting ready to send the kids to Disneyland where they will be with 100 or so other students from Clarkston, Wash., all members of the Clarkston High School marching band and they are supposed to march at Disneyland.
They will be gone for a week, I'm not sure how my wife and I will handle the boredom that will be our house without them.
But I don't envy their trip, they will crowd everyone onto three buses and drive to Disneyland from Clarkston. It is supposed to take them about 18 hours to drive straight through.
Man, who wants to sit on a bus with 40 high school students for about 18 hours straight?

Oh well,
Good luck to them all and it will be a spring break they won't forget.

Baseball been barry, barry good to me

Well, spring training is here, just a prelude to the regular season. We can't wait for the season to start, expecting a great race out of the National League West. I don't think the Padres will be able to repeat. It may be down to the Dodgers and Giants top win the division, some say Dodger pitching will carry them, but I think their lack of power and shoddy defense is going to hurt them more than their pitching will carry them. But we shall see.

Again with the rabbit

Well, my kids are off playing at the TacomaDome as part of the pep band while the Clarkston High School boy's and girl's play in the state's championship series. Both teams have little chance of winning, but the kids are digging being away from home with a bunch of other like-minded teens and away from their parents.
Odd, being in an empty house and missing the heck out of them. We may joke about them, but they are good kids and my wife and I miss them when they are gone somewhere.
Another oddity I am noticing, is the sharing my thoughts in a medium that can be seen by as many people as want to.
Oh well, join the movement, or be left behind.
