Hittin' The Road

Our last episode ended at the Shepard Barclay Festival where we swept to victory by besting our three opponents on Sunday (after nearly getting swept away...literally...by a tornado on Friday).  That was fun...

Scene from the Shepard Barclay Festival

Last weekend the Perfectos kept to their winning ways with victories over the Belleville Stags and Springfield Long Nine, where teams from around the area introduced the game to fans (young and old) from the Scott Air Force Base military community.  The Perfectos season record now stands at 7 victories and 4 defeats.  Sweet Tea and I did not participate in the festivities as we already had another commitment last week...a wedding:

Sweet Tea and I, non-vintage...or at least she is non-vintage.

NOT our wedding...but that of a friend.  It was a delightful little gathering despite the fact it took us back to the bustle and gridlock of the nation's capital.  (btw...it IS possible to have both bustle and gridlock, and if you've ever been to D.C. you know what I mean).

This weekend is Father's Day and many of us have other plans, so we have no games on the schedule.  But next weekend we hit the road for a tournament in Indianapolis, Indiana where we will face the Indianapolis Hoosiers, Indy Blues, and Batesville (IN) Lumbermen.  The Hoosiers were scheduled to play in the Barclay Festival but canceled when the weather turned ugly, so it will be nice to get to square off with them after all.

Hoosier Daddy?

In the meantime, my younger son is in town to visit and we have things to do...

"I believe I can fly..."

Happy Father's Day!
