A ballpark is a magical place, don’t you think? It stops time. It’s a place where a father and son can sit together on a lazy afternoon enjoying the game and decades later, in those same seats, that son can sit with his son, and it’s as if nothing’s changed. Time moves differently inside a ballpark.

Today…
…we had a press conference for Ernie, and our Stage Manager Megan took this shot from the booth! Press Conferences are odd things, and I don’t do them often, so it was fun.
Speaking of baseball…
Last night we played some catch in the yard! Awesome.
Speaking of awesome things, The Town Pump has awesome fried pickles, and lunch today was pretty darned great.
Also…
We start rehearsal for this show next week, and I’m looking forward to it. It’s been a long time since I’ve been onstage, and I’m anxious to work out those muscles again!
So, challenges, opportunities, quality family time… a week full of reminders that all of those are important. Thanks, Universe.
