Article:Proud gramps

This is my first attempt at writing since the article on my wifes passing.I guess I

just needed some inspiration.It came from my Granddaughter.I'll give you a little

background on her first.She's 14 years old and has beem obsessed with softball

since she was 7. She's a pitcher, her goal is to some day pitch for Penn State.

She practices everyday and works out on her bo-flex 3 times a week.She also lifts weights

3 times a week in the winter months.Our local school has just started a junior high team this

year.Last night she pitched against a team that has been a power in the junior high division

for a number of years.She threw a perfect game, striking out 19 of 21 batters.The closest a

batter came to getting on was when she started a batter 3-0 but came back to strike her out.

Tonight, I'll be taking my pride and joy to the best restaurant in town.Maybe Penn State isn't

out of the question after all.
