Groundskeeper Joe

On Friday night the boys went to the Twins game which was highly anticipated by Joe because Friday in the summer they do fireworks after the game. Knowing it would be a late outing Ted wasn't concerned about getting there for the anthem like usual, so when they arrived in the second inning the entrance wasn't crowded which allowed Ted to get his season ticket scanned at the kiosk where you find out if you won a prize. Better than a prize was that they told us they still needed one more kid to be part of the 5th inning grounds crew to switch the bases!  So there was Joe, after the 5th, running around the field with TC Bear!  They got a picture with TC, a shirt, a signed TC card and a piece of bubble gum.  Joe did a great job.  And from there we stopped to sing the 7th inning stretch with Sue, and got back to our seats for the end of the game and fireworks.  And as if that wasn't enough we saw a great full (and blue) moon between the downtown buildings!
