I enjoy “plundering”  through old records related to Little League players from years ago, wonder where they are and what they are doing.  Not sure of the year, must have been in the mid-70s….either the Giants or Cardinals….

Chris Kelly, Rodney Lesane, Tracey Parrish, Mike Bassinger, Ricky Hester, Jim Hardee, Daryl McDowell, Johnny Kalish, Dean Davis, Clifford Cromartie, Winfred Johnson, Doug McClure and Tony McKoy.

The list was to ‘jog my memory’ for those who had provided a birth certificate, parent permission forms, uniform size and they were listed by age (9-12).

If it was 1975 and they were 10 years old at the time, they would be in the range of 50 years old.  See a few on a regular basis, some occasionally and some…I never see, If I do, I don’t recognize them.

So, what are your Christmas plans?

You can give without loving but you can’t love without giving.

The love we give is the only love we will keep.

The man who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.
