Before the
Mud Run......

AFTER The
Mud Run ....
Oh MY !!!!!!

In the words of George Thorogood: "WHOOOOO DO YOU LOVE?!?!?!?!?!?!? It's gotta be Matthew Wyatt and Joseph Gary; my two brothers !!!!!!! While Mark Robert claimed a pulled hamstring......they pushed on through the 3.47 mile Tuff Mudder at Del Osso Farms on Sunday...........MAD PROPS to my two baby brothers - iambrainaic.com is Super DUPER Proud of these two participants - who laid it all on the line for . . .for. . . . a medal. Good Job Goof Troop HA HA HA HA HA HA Makenna Grace snapped most of these pics and asked if she could go next year. I told her "Sure thing - and I'll be your Wing Man !" Way to go Joe and Matt - you did the family name proud !

Saturday morning before Karson's baseball game I shot out to the annual Dorfman-Pacific Closeout Sale - they have their global distribution warehouse out kitty-corner from the county office, and we've struck up a relationship with their V.P. of Finance, who invited us this year. IT WAS AWESOME ! ! ! ! ! ! Here's a photo of my haul, and Makenna modeling one. I'll be sure to invite everyone next year - jagada was the first one to stop by the house - he scored three -

Nothing better than an "EXTENDO" Mother's Day - starting off the festivities one week early, you can never celebrate Mom enough - so the tribe rallied up in Ripon for a Condit/Atilano/Henry picnic - played frisbee, listened to the Giants beat the Brewers, hit the Bocci Ball court, and enjoyed some family camaraderie.......Happy Mother's Day !

Lawdy Lawdy Miss Clawdy - Mom had a great time visiting with Joy and E down in Arizona recently, bar-be-quing, going for a walk, having a beer in the backyard, . . . . That's alright now momma, that's alright with you Camaraderie Is Crucial !

Karson's' first time pitching - he faced 5 batters, hit two of them, gave up one hit, but made a play on a dribbler and forced a runner at the plate, then took a batter to a full count before striking him out for a swinging K to end the inning. And yes, Assistant Coach Dad was the first one out of the dugout to high five him !!!!!!!!

April 22 sets an Ashwood Court record - Earliest In EVER - a Before and After pic. Nice, calm, clean waters........and then a shot of Brainiac in the pool ! I dove in with the camera in hand and came up screamin' HA HA it was juuuuuuust a little chilly - as soon as this next rainstorm is over you are all invited over !!!!!!!!!

Noticed that our neighborhood dive had a new sign put up - - - - I guess they are trying to say that if you want to get falling down drunk, go that way ? Right ? Or am I missing something ? Oh, wait, or are they saying that their patrons are so cool that even when they fall down, they can keep their drink upright and won't spill a drop ? Either way, it's an instant classic ! ! ! ! !

Some photos from our fantasy baseball draft held in Ripon last Friday night. If you were there you don't need any captions, if you weren't, i'll let you supply your own. Thank the Good Lord I had sense enough to leave before they headed downtown. Enjoy !

I forget how this even happened.....did it come off on Stokes' eye ?

And so it ends..........the event has been over for over a month, and your fearless leader has endeavored to create the cinemagraphic tabloid to depict said events.....a Punt Movie, a Pass Movie, a Kick Movie, and now, alas, . . . . A PPK XV FINAL; "Dan's Driveway"; where Keith Hernandez won his second Championship. If you were there, you can attest to the magic of the day, and if you weren't . . . shame on you, for you have missed one of the greatest one day events in the history of . . . . whatever it has become. So come celebrate the spirit of camaraderie with us. The site will return to regularly scheduled programming. But for now, Enjoy http://vimeo.com/38565924
