My waters...

This is actually part of a post I made about 5 or 6 years ago on this here blog.... "Some people say their love is like a river, ever flowing. Mine is like a huge lake. I seem to have the occasional person seeking recreation in my loving waters but little do they realize the depths of this lake they swim in. Just as the iceberg hides its sheer size under the oceans surface, my love is the same way. I enjoy the company of the occasional swimmer, boater, picnicker ……enjoy the fact they find my loving waters to be worth visiting, but I long for the one who will stay after the others have gone and stand at the waters edge and wonder just how much is there. One who will ride the waves when things get turbulent and flow downstream with me when my love escapes the boundries. Just as a deep lake or ocean hides danger in its depth, my heart hides many things as well. But a lake or ocean also hides many beautiful things most never see…..beauty abounding in the depths of these waters are as the love that abounds deep in my heart. I have hid them so many years now only giving glimpses here and there but now I feel the constant nagging to find the one who will explore my waters. Please don’t fear the danger you feel is lurking beneath the surface but instead look at the joyous times that can be shared."

ALCS game 6, going BACK to the World Series

Front of the line for my gate :)

Last years MVP, Josh Hamilton

Thought it was Mark Cuban.....

Jack Ingram, Dirk Nowitski, John Wetteland, Rusty Greer....
Just a bit inside....


its a staredown.....

Nice little double for Murphy to plate Napoli!

As you can maybe figure out, I made another trip to Arlington to watch some baseball Saturday October 15th and lo and behold the Rangers won it big and garnered another trip to World Series. After the Cardinals clobbered the Brewers on their home field, the stage is set for Wednesday night......St Louis hosts the first two, then to Arlington for gasmes 3,4, and 5 on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I may try to score a seat for game 3 on Saturday. :)

Our own Rangers fell behind early thanks to two solo shots served up by Dutch Holland but he got some big time breathing room in the bottom of the 3rd in the form of a 9 run inning in which 13 men went to the plate before it was all said and done. Michael Young had two 2-run doubles in one inning!! He would also later add a solo homer. Glad to see potentially this years MVP break out of his slump. Final score when the dust cleared was Texas 15 (yes 15) to the Tigers 5.

My own version of God Blessed Texas


We've won the pennant races
Been to the series called World
This year brought brand new faces
As we give it another whirl..
We do believe in miracles
But still have to see to believe


God blessed Texas, with His own hands
Lets hear some noise all you Rangers fans!!
Ian and Elvis showed us how to dance,
Miss a pitch to Murph he will put it in the stands

Hmmmmmmm God blessed Texas!!

Michael Young lit the scoreboard
While Napoli and Josh took them deep
Then Cruz showed off his boomstick
For all the world to see
Now all the world knows
Wash works in mysterious ways
We had a days rest
Then on the very next day.....

God blessed Texas
and their awesome fans
Whooped the Tampa Bay Rays
Even the Tigers couldn't stand
We took first place
Heard the NA-PO-LI chants
If you wanna win the series
well here's your second chance
Ive been sent
to spread the message
Even Dirk loves Texas!!
