At the Yankees with Pete and Bob

First time I think I had met Bob Fenson. What a nice guy. He was a bit overwhelmed with the whole NY experience including the subway and the cab ride from the airport. Guess they drive a little different here then in Bemidji. They had a great time at the game. Unfortunately we didn't get any foul balls our way.

The main reason they were in town was for Bobs' birthday. So Mrs. JHcurl got his name up in lights on the main scoreboard in Yankee stadium. Got a picture of it and will be sending it to them.

Of course the best part about that is Mrs. also ended up getting her picture on the scoreboard. If you have been to a game you know that in between innings a lot of time the cameras will focus in on people and they show up on the scoreboard. Well that is when they also do the birthday announcements on the board. So there is Mrs. standing there with the camera and focused on the scoreboard. We are all watching the board as well. All of a sudden there she is, bigger then life, on the scoreboard with a camera in her hand. She was so shocked that she didn't even get a picture of it. I fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard. At least she recovered in time to get a picture of Bob's name.

Later,
JH
