A year ago yesterday, I walked my
daughter down the aisle and then told the reception audience how that day
marked the ninth anniversary of Clare hitting five homeruns at a travel
tournament. Yesterday, we were both in downstate
Carbondale to celebrate a relative’s wedding.
Of course, I reminded Clare that it was now ten years since she’d put on
that offensive show in Joliet.
It takes around five hours to
drive from Chicago to southern Illinois.
Not one softball or baseball diamond we passed on either day was in use;
that’s worrisome. The White Sox called
up Dylan Cease, who’ll start on Wednesday; that’s exciting. I learned the news driving home. My daughter called my wife, who put her on
speaker phone. I guess you could say we’re
a family of serious baseball fans.
