More On My Big Brothers

Just to expound a tad more about my big brothers.  At Sat.'s game it was  time of a bit of reflection for me.  We played at Albemarle where Bobby first started playing softball in Sr. Games.  As I was watching them play, there were 4 players on the other team that he played with when he played with Tri-County.  Three of those four were on the very first team and one came the next year.  As I sat there watching all these guys I realized that it had been 9 years and that 9 years ago this summer I was sitting at the same ballfield doing the same thing but the difference was I don't have a husband that plays anymore.  My big brothers and I joke about it but it seems like no matter who we play there is always somebody on the other team that I know.  That comes from 9 years of score keeping.  They also tease me some that when we go to Raleigh for the state games I am walking around talking to old guys from all over the state.  Bobby and I met a lot of neat people while he was playing and we went to a lot of great places.  I am thankful to count these old farts as friends.
