T-Ball

Rhinebeck T-Ball league play is underway. Sarah had her first outing on Saturday morning, and received the propitious uniform number 7. She plays for the Wonderland Florists, which, on Saturday, squared off against Village Pizza.
Here she is at bat.

She made good contact and steamed into first with a single.

The first baseman did not seem very happy to see her, though.

The baseball field is very close to the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome, so curiosities such as this occasionally fly overhead.

Back at the farm, the lilacs were in full bloom, and Jen and Sarah gathered big bouquets.

Here, also enjoying the lilacs, is an Eastern Tiger Swallowtail.

Many other flowers were blooming. We had lots of pink and white honeysuckle, and some Columbine.

This phoebe has built a nest over our front door. Every time we go in or out, it flies to the nearest tree. We feel is if we are putting it out.

We had time for a good long walk.

And, on Saturday night, Sarah and Jen gave the sleeping porch a whirl.

One response so far
Love the pink mitt!
