Aging.

“I enjoy watching things age. 

Grey hair.

Crows feet.

Laugh lines. 

Holy jeans. 

Broke down boots. 

Calloused hands. 

Stretch marks from childbirth. 
Faded paint. 

Bald tires.

Scars. 

They all tell a story with more words than would fit in an entire set of encyclopedias.
  The marks left by truly living.  Better than any photograph could capture.”

Athletics Vs. Royals

Yes, today I took my daughter to her first major league baseball game.  Our hometown heroes the Oakland Athletics versus the visiting Kansas City Royals.  She enjoyed every minute we were there.  She had her hat autographed by Hideki Okajima and received a ball from Casey Chavez.  As a plus, she got to run the bases after the game.  The home team won on top of all that too!  She was totally into the whole experience.  It was a pleasure to take her.  A moment I won't forget.
