The countdown begins...

One week from today I'll be driving up to Cooperstown to visit the mecca for all baseball lovers: the National Baseball Hall of Fame!! I'm getting so excited! Road trips are always fun.

The above picture was taken at a war bond game at DC Stadium. Among the participants were these Navy All-Stars (major league players who had joined the Navy during World War II). And I have to give credit where credit is due: photo courtesy of the National Archives (thanks, Laurel!).
