Welcome back

Hey Kids.  Have you missed me?

A few years ago, 13 to be exact, I started a blog, this blog.  I entitled it, "Baseball, God and Tacos."   three of the most important things in my life, but not necessarily in that order.   I wrote about 20 blogs then got tired of it and let it die.  Now I think it is time for resurrection.

So, beginning with this brief column, my blog has been revived.   

As you know I wrote for the Pocahontas Star Herald for 15 years.  I left that job 10 years ago when my wife Marilyn and I moved to Alabama.  To be honest, I was ready to move on.  Being a reporter is a busy job.  Well most of the time, with day-to-day activities, ball games, meetings, deadlines, well sometime those work weeks went from 40 to 50-55.

I dont miss the day-to-day aspect of the job.  I'm 67 years old and frankly too old for that.  But I do miss writing, it is something I think I have a little bit of talent doing.  Many of you were kind enough over the years to say so too me.   So by returning to the blog, I hope to once again satisfy my urge to write.

Honestly I dont know if I will write weekly, several times a week, or once a month.  Just whenever the mood strikes me, and whenever something crosses my mind that I want to write about.  I cant use the excuse I dont have any time., because I am retired, that's all I have is time.

So maybe some of you will subscribe to this, maybe some of you won't.  Doesn't matter.  Well yes it does, I hope you like it.

Have a great rest of your Thursday, there's a pork steak in the fridge left over from yesterday that has my name on it.

Be nice to each other.
