Ross and I went to work together today...then Tri-State treated us to Rocky Top Cafe in Jackson,
great place to eat.....had a wonderful early dinner.
Today is the 100th anniversary of Fenway Park (another 1912 - 2012 connection) ....Thanks Tim for the heads up......one of my favorite movies is Field of Dreams which of course had Fenway Park in it......that movie also inspired Ross and I to make our own Field of Dreams here at the farm when we first moved in....this is in the back yard....and we did indeed plow under a corn field to turn it into a ball diamond. Our hope for the future was that we would have enough grandkids to play a game between parents and kids.....now with 15 grandkids....we have enough for 2 teams.
This picture was taken in the fall of 1996
here is another shot from the cupola....looking into the backyard....
this picture was taken in the summer of 2004 and there were
soybeans not corn planted next to it that year.

Over the years, this field has had many games played on it and even had the local little leauge team use it for practice one year when our son Joe was the coach.
Pleasant Dreams!!!
