Just got back from the game. Left after the 5th inning score Kc 8 Chgo. 3

inn the various Services. BUT IT WAS NICE TO BE RECOGNIZED PERSONALY.

No pics. were taken by anyone. Too damn hot. Rocky

I was wondering about the heat. My family likes to go to the local minor league games (Kinston Indians) but it's just too darn hot! Today it was 100+ heat index in NC. Not fun!

 

Glad you had a good time, you ol' doggie. ;)

Indeed, that is what I meant.

 

I - Erwin - bought a T-shirt "I'm with a WWII Vet".

Sorry for the confusion.

Hi Rocky, glad to hear you had a nice time even though the heat was intense.

 

I've never been able to handle the heat, I go into meltdown almost immediately.

Great to see you had a good time at the game Rocky. Ya the heat has been kinda bad, 2 weeks ago i was down in Laredo TX and last friday i was in Texarkana AR, dont ask how hot a 5x8 metal box on 18 wheels can get in 105 degree heat. :zzzz:
