Grew up in Waterloo until age 12.  Grandparents lived in Hudson.  Back in the 70's and 80's town closed up to watch the FB team.  I think that they had a larger attendance than the 5a school my son attends here in Texas, but time always skews perspective, and yes I did walk uphill both ways.

Remember the youth baseball program during the summer for younger kids was "Tshirts" and when you got older you moved to "Sweatshirts".

Most fun was just putting your glove over your handle bar, bat over your shoulder, and getting your friends and "traveling" to an "opposing" elementary school for an afternoon/evening (until the streetlights came on, or until you heard mom yell).

Now we just fly to Florida

That last line just made my morning. Too funny. Too painful
