Nice job on the open ChiTown. To return the favor... I should have edited it because you have always been so wonderful editing mine. Of course... me doing the edits would have meant the insertion of ellipses and removal of correct punctuation.
Yeah... I used the cold water for my personal entertainment. We stopped in Santa Barbara. My kids were still pretty young at the time. They had been in the Atlantic in Florida but never the Pacific.The whole trip I was telling them that they were going to swim in the Pacific Ocean and they were pretty pumped. Got out of the car and I told them to run full speed into the ocean and they did. I'm still laughing... they ran out quicker then they ran in.
I've done all 48 I'm proud to say. Vermont was the final state to complete the life long project. The State of Vermont did not present me with any trophies, medals or even ribbons to help celebrate the accomplishment.
I understand that. But... if the team is still in first place or reasonably nearby first place or wild card. I'd wait until the off season to make that trade.
