Baseball and BBQ's

That's my Daughter Jackie and me at the SF Giants Baseball game at Pac Bell Park. Her husband Dustin got the tickets and he had to go out of town so Jackie asked her "ole Daddy" to go.We had a great time.We had "club level" seats and even though the Giants didn't win, it was a great game. One thing Jackie and I found out,even though we had free tickets, we had to park($30),we had hot dogs and drinks($25),toll bridge coming and going($9),gas(180 miles $60). It wasn't free! But well worth it. Thanks Jackie and Dustin!
As I have said before, I love sports but my passion is baseball.I would go no matter the price or talent level. I always enjoy a good game.
Well this is our last week at Beals Point and we have a bad case of "hitch itch".We are stowing away for our Sunday departure.We played cards for the last time with the camp hosts Tues. night.Friday and Saturday are our last two days of work for us.
Sunday morning we will pick up the rental truck and trailer,go to our storage unit, load the trailer,go back to the park and load up the golf cart. Prep the motor home,hook the car up and caravan down to park sierra for a
month.One thing that is high on my list this week is giving my Grandson DJ one last ride on the gator. I will miss him when we leave. When the time comes to leave you always dread leaving the ones you love the most. But one thing I know ,our kids understand that Mom and Dad are living the dream of travel and support our dream.We know it is tough on all of them when we leave,but they never let on, they wish us well until next time not knowing when that might be. Jeni and I hope our kids get to follow their dreams like we have and enjoy life.

Last Saturday the parks dept. had a pancake breakfast for all its employees and volunteers. The rangers were the chefs and they put on a great feed.Sausage,bacon pancakes,eggs,and coffee and juice.Yummy! Everybody we have worked with this winter has been super and Jeni and I will miss all of them.
As we are sad to leave the people here at Folsom lake, we temper that with the happy prospect of seeing all of our friends at park sierra and our new home base.As one chapter closes,another chapter opens for us.Until next time,get out there and follow your dreams.
