Weird experience

Brought the kids out for pizza tonight. As we parked a guy came over and said, "nice SVX". He then asked if he could take some pictures and send them to a friend who is apparently an SVX enthusiast. The kids got a kick out of that. We had our pizza and, as we were driving home, a thunderstorm hit and we got pelted with hail. Hopefully it was small hail and no damage was done. It was too dark to tell and I didn't really want to know.

That is weird...
Actually taking the kids out for pizza.

























Actually some of my fondest memories are of taking the boys out to Pizza Hut!
They were loud, impulsive, boysterious,
did I mention loud?
But if I could go back ther right now, I would live there...
Enjoy your Angels.

Somewhat creepy, but cool.

I had a self-awareness moment at the end of the baseball season. I was very aware of how much fun I was having coaching my kids and sad that it won't last forever.
