Where to start.....

The boy was promoted to 6th Grade during an 8am ceremony Friday. We were very proud (all of us, Granny, Popit and Uncle too) and the boy showed up like 6 times in the school video. It was very nice but also we were detached. We just got here, the boy was in the school for less than 7 months and spend 1 month of that in the hospital. It would have been different if it was our school from NY and I knew someone other than my wife.

Great game this morning!!! We won 12-7 and the boy had 2 hits that hit the fence in Left field and made an spectacular inning ending catch that even the other coach shook his hand.

Finally, RUSH last night! AWESOME!! The venue is a mere 5 minute drive from our house and that is the back door. We had great seats, center right behind the sound board. The boys played out and enjoyed themselves. My only complaint was that they recycled most of the Vapor Trails tour I saw them twice on. Pretty much the same line up with few exceptions. The nice surprise was the playing of a few tunes from the new album, Feedback, which they cover The Who, Cream and other influences when they formed in 74. They played Summertime Blues, Heartful of Soul and Crossroads...fantastic.
