Day 1 of the Texas Adventure

Day one - a typical summer day in Texas - hot and sunny. Today's high was in the high 90's.

The main activity of day one was attending a Round Rock Express baseball game. Here are a couple of pictures from the game. The Express pulled off a difficult win against the Albuquerque Isotopes. It was difficult fore, as we were informed by Zach, the Round Rock Express is in last place. The battle for last place is between Albuquerque and Round Rock. So this series is very important. Tonight's game was the first of three. Go Express!


The day also involved shopping at the local sports store. The boys needed to buy a baseball bat and some balls along with sneakers for Dave. While wandering the store they also found an under water skate board floaty thing. So of course they had to buy that. Later in the day Zach gave it a try. But it only made it to the shallow end. I'm sure it will be tested out in deeper waters later in the week.

Other activities included baseball at the neighbors, swimming, and several walks with Joker.

We will see what tomorrow brings ..... Tomorrow's forecast partly cloudy and 96.
