Three amigos...

Good Morning!

Sorry if this entry is brief, there is not much wifi on the island and I am going through my cell phone. Things are wonderful in Majorca. It's an unbeleivable paradise.

As I have sat here today, I have thought a lot about what got me here. There are several things, but for this simple moment I am going to give credit to a few male influences that I know gave me the luck I find today as I look over the Mediterranean.

I cannot describe how proud I am of my father, he put up with all my nonsense for so many years. I cannot think of a better person, so nice and friendly. He gave me the opportunity to be who I wanted to be, never once do I recall him doing anything other than encourage me. As I sit here I am thankful for both the kindness of my father and the feistiness of my mother that I am blessed with. If I could only be half the person my dad is, I wouldnt have a worry in the world, he is my hero...

The sun shining through the clouds in Majorca.

There are several things that run through your mind while sitting on the beach alone. I couldn't help but think about Papaw Rollie. The guy that cared so much to throw me batting practice when he was in his seventies after that 0 for 4 day with three K's. But he got me through it.

Finally, Big John, how I wish we could share this moment together. I would give my bottom dollar only to speak to you for a few minutes. You would love this place. I know you are somewhere looking down on it all, but know you are the "man" as far as I am concerned.

So as I finish this post from paradise. Remember there are none more important than the ones closest to you . Adios!
