My life is somewhat complete - too bad it's 35 years too late. With my son playing BBall tonight at Keelesdale Park where I used to play 35 or so years ago I was coaching 1st base & after the 1st inning I went the through vistor's dugout to get to ours when I thought I saw someone familiar. A coach on the York team whom I played with recognized me & we talked breifly. He married the hottest girl in grade 8 & all through high school & he said make sure you see Gloria in the stands during the game. As soon as I walked out of the dugout she saw me & came over & gave me the BEST KISS ever (next to my wife). I told her that I as many boys did, had a MAJOR crush on her throughout school & then she said "I had one on you as well". I didn't know.
I was a SHY kid.
I missed most of the next inning recollecting the past.
In my mind I hit for the cycle & also a Grand slam tonight.
p.s. we lost the game 10-8 (maybe due to my distraction)- but it was worth it.

That's a very cool story.
Ahh...Keelesdale Park, I use to go watch the softball games there every night while I was living in that area. Sometimes I go back just to catch a game, great story, thanks for taking me back. I think I will check out a game there next week.
