HIT IT HERE

The insanity continues.


I finished the latest addition to the outfield (backyard) wall a few days ago. Yes, I know the grass needs to be trimmed along the wall. I promise I did it right after I took this picture. Anyhoo...the sign is about 15 inches in diameter and it's about 56 feet from home plate. I was going to make it worth more, but Jake is learning to place his shots really well, and thus I would be in severe financial straits pretty quickly.

Now, all that's left is to paint a giant "Beat the Yankees" on the wall. You see, I hold no particular MLB team close to my heart. I like 'em all for different reasons. All except one. I loathe the Yankees. Top to bottom a sorry bunch of bums. The boys are both right handed and like to hit drives to the opposite field. I will paint it on my right field wall so they can constantly pound line drives off it. In fact, I think I will give them another quarter each time they chip a little paint of the sign.

Boys, time to earn your allowance.
