Hall of Fame Players

Our game yesterday between the Kansas City Royals and Oakland Athletics was punctuated with having some Hall of Fame Players signing autographs in a booth next to ours. It was a very pleasant surprise when I noticed the tents being set up for the four Oakland Athletic's Hall of Fame players - Rollie Fingers, John "Blue Moon" Odom, Bert Campaneris and Willie Wilson:

They sat at a table next to our merchandise tent where they worked for the entire game. I got a shot of the stars following the game which was won by the Kansas City Royals, 5-2:

They are, from the left: Rollie Fingers, John Odom, Willie Wilson, a fan and Bert Campaneris.

What a thrill to see them and have them located next to us. They are heroes from my younger days.

I also go a couple shots of our store as we had long lines all day:

and Josie was super busy at the register the entire game:

You can also see the tent where the Hall of Fame Players were located.

I also have this final shot of Rollie Fingers and the players taken during the game:

We have one more game to work - tomorrow - and the Spring Training season will end for us. Amen.

Today is Easter, and we will attend the church service here at the resort. Later today, we will have a pot luck Easter Dinner with our new friends at their motorhome and get to meet some more of the folks in our park. People have started to leave the area now for their summer homes so the park is beginning to look more empty...

Happy Easter !!
