Many recognizable players in the dugout here:

Look at all the Red Sox Red in the stands!
Here's Renteria at bat.

Random Sights in Baltimore

Remember the decorated flying horses all over the Outer Banks? Baltimore has the same thing, only with crabs -- for instance, the birthday-cake crab that Aurora befriended in one of the other pictures. Here's a close-up of a beach glass crab that I really liked.
It wasn't a surprise to find crab sculptures in Maryland, but it certainly was a surprise to run into Albie, the racist dragon! (He keeps his back turned to the blue dragon behind him, because it's different to him.)
Here's the view from behind a waterfall that's part of a whole complex of man-made pools and falls in the Inner Harbor.
This meeting lasted for the whole weekend; every time we went by, they were still at it. In fact, I'll bet they are still meeting.
Here are Caleb and Aurora enjoying a ride around the harbor on the water taxi.

The pictures, at last

On Saturday, we had a beautiful birds-eye view of the whole stadium.

Another view from our Saturday seats

Notice all the red on the people flowing into the park on Eutaw Street. (Dad wants to know how they spell Idaho in Baltimore.)

Where are all the...

Picture of this weekend?

S-E beats Mt. Markham . . . again!

2-1 in overtime. Goals by Nolan Fuller and Travis Tomaselli. S-E dominated play through most of the game. Woot! (as I think my kids would say.)

LUKE...

is a National Merit Semi-Finalist. Way to go, Luke. The last NMSF at Sherburne-Earlville was... Caleb. Before Caleb, IIRC, it was a nine-year drought.
