We were very touched when Bob and Cindy asked us to join them at Angel Stadium on a very special evening. Bob received The Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Professional Ball Players Association. It's a charity organization formed in 1924 to aid players that have fallen on tough times. Bob was acknowledged for his outstanding 41 years of coaching baseball at Capistrano Valley HS. It was a fantastic evening. We met and talked with many former big leaguers including Jerry Reuss, Bobby Grich, Rod Carew, Tommy Davis, Darrel Miller, Doug Decinces and Heavy Weight World Champion (1980-1982) Mike Weaver.
PS I know this has absolutely nothing to do with
Serenity Now but it was so cool I had to post it.

| Feels real nice being in a major league dugout. Wish it was 50 years ago when I was still playing! |

| Second baseman Bobby Grich talking to Carew. Two greats. |
