Saturday In The Park

Although it's a week past the 4th of July, that is where we are heading later today. We're meeting up with a couple of Rebecca's long time friends from mighty Joseph E. Wheeler High School (class of '94) and their respective families. We found a park and sports complex about half way between Kennesaw and here with a nice little play area and some fields. Hopefully it won't be too hot out there.

Had movie night again in the house last night with another showing of "Bolt". Zachary earns pennies for doing some basic chores and listening, and if he earns 10 pennies he gets a movie night. Bolt was from the regular animation arm of Disney, and while the animation is comprabale to Pixar, you can definitely tell where all the talent from a story making perspective has flowed. The stories Pixar has cranked out in the past decade have dwarfed anything Disney has done since "The Lion King".

Finally, a quick shout out to my cousin Chris back in Levittown, PA. He pitched in the deciding game of a playoff series for his first American Legion baseball team and went the distance for his first win. Oh, did I also mention he's only 15 and was doing this against 17 and 18 year olds? Pretty impressive to say the least. Perhaps I need to get my aunt to get some video of him sent down this way so UGA can take a look at him in a couple of years....
