After Church ⛪️ it was off to Bill Worrell Field, then Hillsville Elementary School, and eventually back to the ballpark.

Enough material for at least a dozen different stories as is often the case, my brain 🧠 struggles to process the information fast enough.

The Alumni Game is underway, and we shift our focus to the starting lineups for our Special Olympics Basketball 🏀.

Today, we have 21 athletes and partners, and Dino Lady is using the snack break to create the Blue and White teams.

The ballgame is set to last 7 innings so there is a shot of getting back for the end of things.

Need to say thank you once again to Ryan McCafferty for taking the time to come over once again.

It’s time to introduce some amazing people so more will come later.

Made it back across The Hill as things were wrapping up, but it did allow for a crossing of the paths with Mr & Mrs Chuck Thompson !! In real life, Mr Thompson is our principal and fearless leader, while in my imaginary world 🌎 that is The Hill, he has super powers and is the Gate Keeper to the entire universe!

It’s a tough job, but I think he’s up to the task !

I have to mention that both Casey Burcham and Vickey Ritchie knew that the rain 🌧 last night created an overlap in places to be, and both happily deferred to the other. ❤️

We split our time the best we could and now have made it back to the cows 🐄 out here in Laurel Fork.

There are plenty of stories to work on and one statement to make until then. I have unlocked 🔓 the mystique for the air around Bill Worrell Field….

Psalm 102:12 But thou, O Lord, shall endure for ever; and thy remembrance unto all generations.

Today, we have four items on the docket to keep an eye on. Two here on The Hill and two more that I find relevant to my thought process.

They will be playing Men’s tennis 🎾 again today down US – 52. The fact that a professional event is being played just one hour down the road is the sole reason why this is relevant to me.

The back half of the basketball weekend in Vancouver, British Columbia, will take place tonight at 7pm our time.

At Bill Worrell Field, the activities will resume this afternoon. Yesterday afternoon and evening were a great deal of fun, and that was due to the quality of people involved.

Thank you to Brother Osborne for reaching out as he manages to do every day, without fail.

Have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌😇🙏
