Great baseball!

We have had four great days of baseball at the Perfect Game Tournament!  Trent's team the Show won the first two games on Thursday by a lot!  Trent was the starting pitcher in the second game and pitched three innings.  He did a great job and they were ahead 5-0 when they put in a different pitcher.   On Friday they played two games and the Show won both again!  On Saturday they played the semi-final game.  Trent came in to pitch the 5th inning with a person on third and two outs.  Two pitches and he had the batter out!  He got the first out in the sixth and then hit a player.   He pitched a strike to the next batter up and on the second pitch the batter hit a ground ball to the short stop who threw to second and  got the runner out, second threw to first and got the runner out, a great double play and they won the game!

Sunday was a special high school game and today was the Championship game!  The score was 0-0 after two innings and then the other team scored 2 in the top of the third inning.  In the bottom of the third we got 3 and held on to win the Championship 3-2!  They won 6 straight games in a row!  The team got a huge trophy but the individual players didn't get anything which was disappointing to us adults.  Kids didn't seem to care!

Trent is number 14!

After the game 12 players and their families went to Sammies Woodfired Pizza.  The four of us (Jeri, Stach, Ted and I) also went there but elected to sit outside on the patio for lunch.  Jeri noticed one of the messy sundaes and got the idea to get them for the kids.  We got 4 of them and it was such fun watching them dig in!  It was a fun way to wrap up the tournament!

A week ago Saturday we talked to La Mesa RV and were told our RV was out of the paint booth.  We don't know whether it has to cure after it comes out or while it's still in but the last RV was here about a week after it got out of the paint booth.  After paint it goes to transportation and they actually have two weeks to deliver it to La Mesa RV.  So we are still waiting!  We so hoped it would arrive at the end of last week but obviously it has not.  The drivers normally take 3 days to get it here from Red Bay Alabama!

We are getting short on time and there is a lot to do.  They will have the RV for a few days to go make sure everything works, put the towing equipment on the tow car and RV,  go over everything with us, transfer our stuff we have been living with to the new RV and then they drive us to Yuma so we can take possession of the RV.  We then need to reload new RV with the 23 boxes that are in storage that came out of our fifth wheel.  We are due in Chama, New Mexico by August 26th for an RV rally and then we start the rally we are hosting!  That is a lot to do in a short period of time!  We hope it's here soon!

Baseball wins and kids with sundaes and smiles..."Ain't Life Grand!"
