New Season

Give the outfield grass a final trim, the infield a last and very careful manicure. Play Springsteen on the sound system, followed by Bach. (We need good music to work to.) Hose off the bleachers.
Check the snack bar inventory one more time: hot dogs? buns? chips and cheese for nachos? candy? popcorn? soda? paper goods to hold everything? napkins? straws?
Opening day tomorrow! Lots to do, but I can't wait!
It's been a long winter, and a long (though quick) spring. And tomorrow the new season begins. New life for every team!
I can start in the morning and enjoy a full day of baseball, and finish with Dodgers v. Giants (last year's World Series winners) tomorrow at 5:00. Ain't life grand?
I love the idea that tonight, every team is tied for first place!
