Summer on the field

Many Hoosiers spend their summers working in a corn, wheat or soybean field.  We, on the other hand, spend much of ours on the softball field.  Actually, it's our daughter Morgan and her teammates on the Indiana Twisters that are on the field, we are on the bleachers biting our nails and cheering them on!  This time of year it is totally life-consuming, but I wouldn't trade it for anything!

In the morning we will head for Elgin, IL (just outside Chicago) for a collegiate showcase tournment, then shoot further up north to Minneapolis for the AFA National Championship tourney.  So, I'll be away from my dear computer for the next ten days but be watching for updates when I return!

Here's Morgan in the circle for the Twisters.  

Her dynamite counterpart in the battery, Holly, waiting to make the tag.

Last weekend the Twisters were runners-up in the ASA National Qualifier in nearby Indianapolis.

Of course, you still have to make time to eat and what a fabulous place this was to do it!  Rick's Boat House on Eagle Creek.  That's a few of the Twister ladies dangling their tootsies in the water (amazingly, nobody wound up falling in!).

this is a bunch who know how to enjoy their food!!
