I did something to my back yesterday moving pitcher's mounds. I started feeling it last night. It just feels like tightness in my lower back.

The fridge is here and set up. I don't know how to take the plastic film off the front. They only left me the quick set up guide. The detailed instructions are in the actual user's manual.

My car needs a new starter.

Are you setting up the razor wire and land mines like Glen does around his B&B? My stuff will be ready to go in about a week in case he decides to surprise us and show up early. I think I need to be more concerned than you do since he has a relative close to me.

Hopefully it is nothing serious like I dealt with a few weeks back.

High around 80 the next 2 days and windy before the storms hit tomorrow, then it only gets into the mid 60's Thursday.

I hope not. Just getting in and out of my car this morning was rough. It sits way to low to have back issues.

That's where mine was, almost to the hips. The center of the pain was offset a bit to the left of center. I mostly lived on a heating pad. Ice did no good whatsoever.

Just got a call from a parent asking why his son didn't make all stars for basketball. I told him we don't do all stars for basketball. He started yelling at me that he knows we do and that the tournament is in Greenville. I said, once again, we don't do all stars so nobody made it.

Sounds like you should do all stars.

I use to run an all star tournament. I brought teams in from all over the state, and people looked forward to it. Now, baseball/softball has to start before we even finish the regular season so I can't even do a playoff.

How old was the kid that didn't make all stars, 7?

3 days of school like last time. The week we are coming back, he is on spring break. It only would have been 2 days if the 1st game we were seeing was a night game.

No idea on how many days of baseball practice as they haven't announced anything yet other than practices begin on 3/15. If it's like last Fall and they only have 2 practices a week, my guess will be 3.

Unfortunately, we aren't coming down your way. We'll be over in the Tampa/Clearwater area.

I might be in your area January 2026 though as I'm trying to plan a fire truck trip down there and I want to get the Ascendant Tower you took a photo of.

He didn't say. Honestly, if we would've had all stars this year we would've gotten destroyed in everything but 13U. 10U kids couldn't dribble, girls league had 2 girls that could play out of 5 teams.

The "we" doesn't include my wife, hence the "my" when referring to our Son in that case.

I'm only planning on one fire station at the moment due to the game schedules. That would be Hillsborough County Station 5 to photograph their Pierce Ascendant Tower.

Should have told him there was a mistake and that his Son did make the All-Star team and tell them what day and time to show up in Greenville.
