First swish with Otto nets 925 "O"

[leslie(nova scotia)]

From the land of the Bluenose.....what a start to a day. Umpires utopia as I did three games this morning and all were over in 5 innings courtesy of the 10 run rule. OOOOops there was a downside as
Marie was not due back to pick me up in Mount Uniacke till 1400 hours and here it was 1250 hours. So I took advantage of what the great day had to offer after a trip to the washroom to remove my mouth guard and other " protective paraphernalia" and laid back on the bleachers and watched a ball game.

After Marie arrived and I handed over the proceeds of my "judgement day" we headed home for a quick change and a trip to a small freshwater beach where Marie was watching my back as I entered the water for a quick swish.


Water was crisp to say the least and I had wished at that moment in time that I had not removed that "protective equipment."

Three targets later and I held up the classic ring signal finding a a 925er toe ring in the bottom of my sieve that proved to be a Kodak Moment for Marie who I had let loose with my camera.


Take for the hour swish was a silver toe ring, Brit 5penny coin 18 coins @ $1.39 and a key ring with two keys. Marie got a chuckle out of the saying on the key chain..."A boy like you needs a crazy girl like me."
What was a bouy to do except take the girl out for an ice cream and with names like Cotton Candy, Rocky road and Cowpoke Carmel I wasnt sure if I was at a horse race or going to get a ticket to some new wave rock band!
