I keep up with their stats and get the bug at World Series time, but could live without sports. It annoys me that usually in the school system - sports get all the funding and art has to fight for it. ANYWAY - going out to lunch or coffee with a friend is such fun to me.

Every weekend we do one day where we take a three or four hour walk around Whyte Avenue and the River Valley here in Edmonton. We stop for frozen yogurt and at every playground we see lol.

I like college football. My sister and my husband were baseball nuts (I used to say) They had season tickets to Diamondbacks when Denny was alive. Now my sister is glued to the TV. I have 2 granddaughters who play h.s. softball and dive on the h.s. and a club team.

My father wasn't much of a sports enthusiast and I have only sisters, so my marriage took some adjusting... especially because Greg plays on two to three softball teams in different leagues and plays basketball with a community league in the winter.
