First Snow




It's not yet Halloween, and we haven't turned the clocks back yet, but it's snowing anyway.

children of the corn






Every year at this time I say, "you know, I'd really like to go to a corn maze..." but it's always either raining, or we're too busy, or I am disgusted by the ridiculous price, etc. But today, the weather was perfect and it was just a corn-maze kind of day. So Dave, Sara and I went. And of course we had to take the hayride to the pumpkin patch and pick pumpkins, which will be turned into Jack-o-lanterns on halloween day.

baseball milestones


Last night, I umpired my 100th game of the season - the second game of a senior double-header, under the lights on a 50-degree October night. Solo.

Oh, and in other important baseball news, the Red Sox won the ALDS, thanks in part to a controversial squeeze-play-foiling tag by Jason Veritek, who apparently held on to the ball "long enough."

All around, it was a good baseball night.

There's only one October


It's a little disturbing that the man has his own blog (http://jacobyellsbury.mlblogs.com/) dedicated to himself... but then again, so do I! Anyway, nice catch, Jake.

And the RedSox get a jump start over the Angels in the ALDS.
