Cute picture and bio. What color were your sox?
ReplyDeleteI may not have had any on...never liked them as a kid (remember how they always slipped down over your heel?).
DeleteLove it! A perfect (and cute) match for the prompt. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gail! I was a real fanatic...
DeleteHow sweet! And weighing 39.5 pounds too!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing on the pounds, Barbara...but, boyoboy, could I hit!!!
DeletePerfect match for the prompt. Boy, were you cute in that outfit.
ReplyDeleteThat was what I wore all summer long when I was little; now that I'm old, I'm rediscovering how comfortable flannel is...
DeletePre-helmet days. Now there are face guards, sliding pads, leg and elbow protectors. Goodness -- it's a wonder we even survived.
ReplyDeleteI know...they sometimes look like helmets with feet (know what I mean?). When I think of all the safety features we didn't have, our survival surprises me, too!
DeleteThe power of just one great photograph as a match fir this week's prompt.
ReplyDeleteMy father LOVED this photo! Kept it on his desk for years...thank you, Sue, for recognizing the power!

ReplyDeleteGreat shot. I have a few similar ones of our kids posing for their season photos. Never played myself though.
ReplyDeleteI was an absolute fanatic, Jo...but this was back in the Dark Ages when girls weren't supposed to play baseball...thank goodness I had liberal parents!
DeleteAbsolutely the best! Made me actually LOL too! I bet you could spit good too!
ReplyDeleteLousy spitter, actually! But I wore that baseball cap from the moment I opened my eyes 'til the moment I closed them at night; drove my mother wild!
DeleteThis is perfection!
ReplyDeleteIf I did this today, at 70 years old, I'd probably screw myself right into the ground...
