Up to Bat

I ventured out on a walk with Mylo today to take advantage of the sunshine, though I could have just stayed curled up in bed and rested a few more hours until it was time to hold our new listing open. The youngster, Mylo, could have been a royal pain since we went to see the boys play their first softball league game (no practice 1st, just guts and glory) and ball playing means barking a getting really excited for Mylo...We made it without pulling or yanking on the leash and fully obeying in the offleash part of Pioneer Park, all the way to Lakeridge ballfield with balls flying everywhere. We sat on the bench and just behaved ourselves until our boys were up to bat. We had scrounged mitts just before gametime and the team barely looked pulled together. No one had showed for the cheering section. We sat on the bench and watched as the score mounted to 4 to 15. Sean got up to bat, got a great hit, and Mylo barked her approval-I think she really wanted to go out and field the balls that were getting away from everyone, but the bubbles were distracting her from the nearby toddler sitting on the hillside (with bubble blower) into the wind. Fly ball-caught by 2nd base man-1st out. Once again it occured to me what a difference a fan can make in the energy of any preformance. I will rally a fan group for the next game guys, but good effort and I know you had fun. Your energy was contageous-the open house went really well and the sunshine stayed out the entire time. Way to go.
