Introductions

Volunteer Ryan politely introduces herself to Apollo, as a large group gathered to build him a fence. Often, dogs that live on the end of a chain can be overwhelmed and frightened with a sudden group of people that show up on their property. However, Apollo seemed to be thrilled with all of the attention and the days end result. No more chain for this fella.

Welcome Back, Boys!

I believe in the church of baseball. I've tried all the major religions and most of the minor ones. I've worshipped Buddha, Allah, Brahma, Vishnu, Siva, trees, mushrooms, and Isadora Duncan. I know things. For instance there are 108 beads in a Catholic rosary and there are 108 stitches in a baseball. When I learned that, I gave Jesus a chance. But it just didn't work out between us. The Lord laid too much guilt on me. I prefer metaphysics to theology. You see, there's no guilt in baseball. And it is never boring.... I've tried them all, I really have, and the only church that truly feeds the soul, day in and day out, is the church of baseball.
