All the years of training and hard work have paid off. For those that don't know, my son is a 2008 LHP.

He has verbally commited to pitch for the Washington State Cougars. Obviously, the opportunity pitch at the D1 level is huge, and son and I are thankful for all the HSBBW members who over the years have given us great advise and tips to get him where he is.. HSBBW rocks!

Woodman and Bum, My grandfather and his 7 brother's and 3 sisters Grew up in the Palouse in the late 1800's.
My grandfather was driving cattle by age ten.

No Woodman not really driving Cattle. I know what your thinking?? LOL
But did try to chase down on Horseback the first car he ever seen.

Beautiful country.

theEH, Woody, all my friends.. lol... thank you all!
For any of you that have never seen the Palouse, or have driven through it, all I can say is..

..imagine rolling green hills as far as the eye can see.. 100 feet of the most perfect topsoil known to man.. shimmering purple and red Summer sunsets.. the smell of lilac in the air.. wayside creeks and curious buttes.. and the utter sound of silence. Go Cougs.

I know what you're talking about EH...I spent three years living in the middle of cattle ranches north of Klamath Falls...hard working, resourceful guys those cattle ranchers...much like the loggers.

The only thing I was driving at age ten was my folks...driving them mad!

And Bum...curious buttes? Curious? Like a cat? Like a Cougar?
