Uncle Bob, Patches and Hockey

















I don't mean to step on Uncle Mike's toes but most of you have commented on that already so I won't feel too terrible.

One of the five websites I read every single day is the great hockey blog done by Yahoo! Sports. The editor lives in D.C. out of the blue today, he did a post about historical NHL patches. I've already e-mailed him to tell him about the incredible career of my industrious Uncle Bob at Lion Brothers and if I'm not mistaken Uncle Bob did the patch for Gretzky's 802nd goal, right? In any case, here is the link to his blog post and if he ever wants to do a story about patches again hopefully he'll contact me for your info you certainly deserve the recognition. If you search around the NHL Patches site Bob and see anything that you've had a hand in, be sure to let me know and I'll pass it along to him. We stay in touch from time to time and I was once quoted on the Yahoo Blog for a story regarding a Columbus rookie.

U.S. Senior Open





Randi and I are attending the Men's U.S. Senior Open at Crooked Stick (John Daly won the PGA herein 1994 as the last alternate to get into the tourney) in Carmel, Indiana.
Bob and Robin will remember this area as the home of Connor Priarie.
While here today for a practice round we found three possible retirement homes.
Let us know your choice and we'll see what we can do.

Nationals Stadium



So, here we are at National Stadium. What a beautiful ballpark.
Linda, Robin and I went last Sunday to help celebrate "Children's Day".
Children's Hospital had an entire section for their diabetes patients and families.
We got to meet some of the doctors that Linda was working under. Robin and I are both VERY PROUD of how hard Linda works toward her PHD.
Plus, we actually beat Mike to a new park. Unheard of!
Enjoy the pics
