Pitching before the storm

We have a storm heading in to San Diego. The rain is coming. 'A' has tryouts for High School this weekend. So we are trying to get her ready. We are also trying to get 'S' ready for her season as well. We are lucky that we live in a Cul-De-Sac. We can pitch undesturbed, for hours. 'S' pitched for 40mins. and did real well. We are just trying to get her muscle memory ingrained. 'A' on the other hand is getting down pitches thaat have lateral/ horizontal movement. Movement at this stage is more important then Speed.
'A' has gotten so fast and has enough movement, that I don't trust myself to catch it, hence, the catchers gear. I say a little prayer, and then hold my glove up for a target.






















Sasha Supervised the whole clinic, and added input when needed.














Sasha had a ruff day, and was allowed some time on the couch which she is not normally allowed to do. It was movie night, and the family sat together and watched Ghosttown, and Journey to the center of the earth.







We had a great weekend with our friends from Chula Vista, and Phoenix.
We all bowled on Saturday night. Kim had the high score in the first game, beating all bowlers with a 164. The second game she started to wear down, and John Got the highest score.

The next morning, we ( Freddie, John, Robert, and I ) went golfing at Chula Vista. Scores were 85, 83, 91, and 93 respectively.
What a fun time it was on the course, and at the lanes. A great weekend!
