Holy Moly - it's been a while...

Yes - the month of July was a bit of a whirlwind with lots of travel. Here's a few shots I took of a visit to Cooperstown, NY. The weather up there was unbelievable - mid 80's, breezy, and in the mid 60's at night. Coming home to Atlanta has been a wake-up call. It's too dang hot here!

My son played in a 12-under baseball tournament at Cooperstown Dreams Park. 104 teams from across the country came to compete and it was the experience of a lifetime for him. They played well, had their butts kicked and kicked some butt themselves. And of course we visited the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum!

Action shot.

"Catfish", his nickname, at bat.

Most amazing, however, was the place we stayed. A converted barn on a property which once belonged to the owner of the New England Patriots. This little gem made the trip worthwhile. We parents didn't mind being holed up here...

And we discovered that chickens and roosters are pretty cool.
