Baseball BBQ

The first weekend of June we had a Baseball BBQ. It was great fun. Nearly every one's comment was "I can't remember the last time I played baseball". That being said, everyone did great - and the weather was also great.

There were many cops: (back) Troy, Baldwin, (Center) AJ, Logan, (Right) Alex, Craig.

We had enough people to have two full teams. Everyone got involved - here my theatre friend Mark is pitching. Mark, Aaron (TD at Theatre Calgary) Matt (from Do It With Class) were all on my team - let's say team TFD (so named by Steve).

Stef pitching and AJ on the other team-team 2.

Team 2 - Craig, Alex and Logan. Steve, the runner on third, on TFD.

Logan's partner from Vancouver arrived with his wife Pam and daughter Madison.

Jason on Team 2, Aaron (Tech Director) TFD.

Andy and his wife are fresh from the UK and had never played baseball before. They were great fun.

Stef, AJ and Jason - Team 2. Kendra (my good friend from Regina) on first.

Team 2 - Miranda, Andy, Baldwin, Craig.

When we called the game, Team 2 was ahead by a couple of points. We finished our beers and walked back to our house for hot dogs, hamburgers, pasta salad, spinach strawberry salad and trifle for dessert.

We had some food and some beers. Many people stuck around into the night for a fire.
