The Oldest European Port
(And Adam's Tenth Start)
Yesterday, Mommy and Dan got to watch Adam pitch professionally for the very first time. And no, they don't freak out like I do...just in case you were wondering. Though he didn't get the W, they had a lot of fun seeing him "live" and my man did manage to show off for them, just a little bit. In 4 2/3 innings..Adam's line:
7H, 4R, 4ER, 2HR (oops), 0BB, 8K
Yeah, he gave up some hits...and yeah, he gave up some runs. (I'm learning that that happens in baseball). But whoa! Look at that BB to K ratio! Atta boy! We like those Ks Adam!
Tired and sore, we drug Adam to the town of St. Augustine, Florida right after his 93-pitch start (thanks for being such a good sport, Honey!). 30 miles South of Jacksonville sits the oldest "continuously occupied European-established settlement and port in the continental United States." Thanks Wikipedia! Seriously though, St. Augustine is a really neat place...and we didn't barely get a chance to even scratch the surface of it! I'm going to drag Adam back there a second time one of these days! (Hehehe) Here's some things we saw/did:
Fed birds at dinner through a flap in the wall. They're crazy for their bread. And they know you have it.
The town from the bridge.
Pirate ships (and people in love).
More people in love.
A beacon of hope. And an immaculate sunset.
