Picnic Report

News from the church picnic: The weather turned out pleasant. No rain in the afternoon, a nice breeze and cloud cover. Pat Canavan pitched seven innings of 100 hit ball. He pitched for both teams, though the pitches seemed to be faster and often inside the plate for my team. I got knocked out in the fifth inning diving for line drive at third and knocking out a glass lens. Seeing through one lens just doesn't work when playing defense. Aaron Snethen set the record for falling in both fielding and base running. Josh Ryken took a sharp bounced ball in the face and still continued playing. Phil "Mr. June" Beauford started a little slow, only to crush what would have been a homerun if there had been a fence and he had been not so slow. One last tip. If choosing teams for volleyball, you can't go wrong with Kathy Smith or Sara Peterman.

We had a good turnout considering the day began with rain. Mass quantities of soft pretzels and Tasty Cakes were consumed, as were sodas and water. Pat skipped out a couple hours early - 28th wedding anniversary. Hey, where else would you want to spend your anniversary?
