Baseball Tournament

Saturday, April 25

DSC_0852We didn’t have a lot of time to be at our church’s baseball tournament this year, but went for lunch, because we wanted to help raise funds for the ones chosen this year.

DSC_0853Our grandson Nate is coaching “Red.”

DSC_0855We got there about noon when the homerun derby was going on.

DSC_0885Melissa & Jason and Keith were recipients of this years fundraiser tournament due to expenses from health issues.

DSC_0887Time for afternoon baseball.

DSC_0888It looks like “orange” and “retro” are playing this time.

DSC_0891Retro is a nice way of saying “the old guys.” 🙂

They are men who used to play on one of the three teams – Gray, Red, or Orange. Many now have sons playing on the regular teams.

DSC_0934When I saw Carl and Cerwin talking, I thought, “They may be at a baseball game, but I bet they are talking truck – maybe propane hauling – and probably Carl’s upcoming retirement.

I asked Cerwin about their conversation on the way home. I was correct.

DSC_0910Since we only stayed for an hour and a half, I am not sure who won the tournament.

It was a nice day to play ball, eat lunch, and enjoy fellowship with friends.
