Robin
and Mitchell took our friends Nancy and Adlai Saal from Massachusetts
to the airport Monday for their flight back
home. After they came back that
evening it was time for a cookout, presents, and an ice cream cake
for Robin's birthday! We had a
very nice birthday dinner, and of course, Mitchell helped with blowing
the candles out on the cake. Happy birthday, Robin! |

| Last
week we had the pleasure of a visit from two of our very good friends
from Massachusetts! Nancy Saal and her son Adlai from Worcester arrived
last Tuesday to spend some time in the heartland. On Wednesday, Robin
and Mitchell took them to the Fair
Oaks Dairy Farm. One thing for sure - they have discovered that
things move slower in Indiana! |

Even though they didn't find any mushrooms, they were
still able to experience some of the farm life! |

| I
know I have said before that I don't pay much attention to the NBA.
Well, that is true, I don't. But, as you can imagine, I never miss
a chance to tout another Boston sports team! And of course, one of
the biggest stories this year from the NBA has been the huge turnaround
of the Boston Celtics. They finished the regular season with an eye-popping
.805 winning percentage behind the outstanding play of Kevin Garnett,
Paul Pierce, and Ray Allen. As I write this they are up 2 games to
1 on the Hawks in the playoffs. But now turn your attention to the
West...and notice that the Lakers are about to eliminate the Nuggets
from the playoffs. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Could it be
like the "good old days," |

with
the Lakers and Celtics in the finals? Now, I'm not about to try
to say that a Lakers-Celtics final this year would even come close
to matching up with the great Magic Johnson - Larry Bird championship
years. Don't forget -- the Lakers and Celtics won 8 of the 9 NBA
Championships awarded from 1980-1988. In my opinion, that was back
when pro basketball really meant something. I honestly am not sure
what pro basketball really means these days. But at least it would
be nice to see those two teams going at it again.
Major League Baseball is a month into the new season and we have
already been on a roller-coaster with the Red Sox. They started
sluggish with Big Papi in a slump. They came charging back went
ahead in the East, and have now lost 4 in a row. Ah, the life of
a Red Sox fan!
That's it for
this week. Check back next week for more hard-hitting sports commentary! |
