The Longest Weekend!

It really wasn’t too bad of a weekend; I worked a lot trying my best to get paperwork complete in the office so I might be able to work in the field some. I think I managed it. I promised I would say something about Lori and her T-ball team. A total crack up to me, she has no concept of baseball what so ever, she is a huge girly girl. Anyway, when she is out in the field she daydreams and plays in the dirt and doesn’t notice the other team is out there with her. When she is at bat, she does hit the ball, but runs to the pitchers mound instead of first base -- with the bat still in hand. The other day she was covering third base and this little boy made it to her base, he was waiting on the next batter to hit him, they did and the coach yells “run run!!” so they both did!! Lori beat him to home plate, stood there and waved at us because she made a “Homerun” too. We all howled with laughter at her. One lady told us Lori is the reason why she watches the games now. The other day she was hit with the ball while batting and was able to take her base. Why they were pitching I don’t know, but I asked her what base she chose and she smartly told me “first base is the only one you can take Mark” Ok ok!! Jacks was my buddy Saturday, he me take some time out of the office and ride with him on our bikes. He also treated me to two huge cheeseburgers and fries and a shake, after that we rode for over 3 hours just taking in the scenery. I had to stop to get some gas, while filling up this older lady in a huge sunbonnet gave me the 2 thumbs up sign, I gave them back. I guess in me doing that she felt comfortable in coming over for a chat while I filled up. “Nice bikes!” I nodded and thanked her, then she told me she and her gal pal over there had been riding for over 26 years on BMWs. I was in awe; she rattled on some more information about bike routes and asked where I was from, the usual conversation. She finally walked in the store, Jacks was across from me at another pump snickering “That usually happens to me, I’m glad its you this time” I smirked and shot him a bird. Next I hear “Bow chick bow wow. Well hello Misses Robinson” I wanted to spray him with gas. We made it to town where he found some friends and I drove home to take a nap, but my day wasn’t complete until I talked to Amy some. She is my breath of fresh air and makes my day. I did hear from her…..
