Mother nature strikes again.
By Kevin Snelgrove
    The morning started out warm 65 degrees, bright sun and breezy. Like years in the past, the first event of the year was full of warm greetings and smiles. Lots of grunts and groans could be heard as the pitchers tried to work the rust out of their joints from the winter hibernation.
    A, C and E classes started pitching with gusty winds and clouds thickening. E class managed to complete it flight before the first batch of rain around 1:30.  Robbie and Herb braved the second round of rain to complete the C Flight. A class had called their game after 6 rounds. 
   With temperatures dropping, the wind blowing cold and the drizzle settling in, the remaining brave souls in B class Jim, Wayne and Craig finished the flight. D class decide not to pitch at all. The scorekeepers had their hands full trying to keep the papers dry. 
   I know in the valley around 6 o'clock a few snowflakes could be seen. Perhaps next year)Sill be"pB right warm start to our season.
