OCJAAF Season is Over LNLL already starts

Friday night we turned in our football gear at the La Paz field. Cowboy football season is over.

"This is the last time we will walk up this hill," my son paused as we carried the conflict jersey, pants and gladiator gear all clean to be stored for another team next year.

We could buy the helmet for fifty dollars, but son decided it was better to let someone else wear all his stickers for A's and share the good fortune. He wrote a tiny note inside in permanent ink.

"Never give up."

The image is just a little shaking, but I think that quality does it justice.

P.S. BASEBALL season already started. LNLL We are the Beavers. Our mascot doesn't sound too inspiring.
