Blog Header - May 25, 2008

This blog header shows my son (13 years old as of yesterday) photographing our hometown baseball team, the Lynchburg Hillcats. The Hillcats games are wonderful family outings. We always sit in the seats all the way in the front, right next to the dugout so David can talk to the players. We've met some great families there—families that attend regularly so we've gotten to know them and they've gotten to know us. So it's like hanging out with a bunch of friends each time we go.

The Hillcats' normal jersey color is green. So why are they (and David) wearing pink jerseys in this photo? This was breast cancer awareness night. The players wore pink uniforms. Each fan received a pink t-shirt with a message about breast cancer on it. Even the bats were pink.

Lynchburg as a whole shows great care for its citizens and the Hillcats fit right into that mold.

If you're ever in Lynchburg during baseball season, look up the Hillcats and see if they're playing in town while you're here. If they are, go to the game. You'll have a blast. We'll see you there.
