Baseball Camp 2

Ok, Baseball camps are now over with. They were so much fun! I truly suck at Baseball, but I had a blast at these camps! You know...missing grounders, running into people, and getting all sweaty and dirty? Awww...Baseball, how I have missed thee.

Here are the latest batch of photos from Amy's Baseball camp - of course, there are even more photos on my flickr page.

A little batting instruction before the game.

The American Pastime

I'm headed out today to help at Carin's baseball camp for about 4 days. Then I'll come back here just long enough to sleep and do laundry before I head out to help at Amy's baseball camp for 5 days! These camps will consist of about 4 to 5 volunteers attempting to teach that great American pastime to a bunch of Bulgarian teenagers. I hope I'm ready for this! I've never tried to teach anyone how to play Baseball before. I just always took it for granted that people just "know" how to play. But here, most people don't know what Baseball is. I'm not even that good at the sport...I know how to play and I know the rules, but that's about it. Maybe I'll be a better teacher than player. - "Those who cannot do, teach."

I'll lug my camera with me and try to remember to take photos at Baseball Camp.

Lets Play Ball!

Another hole (or two) in my head

I needed another hole in my ear. Actually, I needed two more holes so that I could have a bar going across the top of my ear. Yes, it was necessary.

The first stab through my ear.
