Hard News Story = Up to the Minute Updates From Mike Littlewood's Acceptation Speech Into HOF
HARD NEWS is UP–TO-DATE happing right that minute news -it is reported when/as it happens.
I am attending Mike Littlewood's induction into the Hall of Fame for his service at Dixie State University as a baseball coach several years ago.
During the induction we can participate in a 'live silent auction'. There are baseball hat packages to be won, autographed art and baseballs, along with an ongoing raffle. I will report here as I win or if someone I know wins or gets the final bid at action.
Many current baseball players are in attendance along with families and supporters from the community. This is a fundraiser for the Dixie State University Baseball team and all proceeds, along with the purchase of season tickets for a discount that is happening over in the back, left corner of the room, goes to help the team and the renovation of the locker room facilities.
DD Udy just missed the winning bid on season tickets, so because he is a great supporter and participator in the sport, he is over purchasing a pass right now!
But this is Don, a former scout for the Cincinnati Reds and his wife Dicy. They are supporting hats that were WON at the silent action! Such good sports! But I needed to edit this because of the shadow on their faces that I unfortunately didn't notice a I was taking the shot.
Mr Udy is also holding a hat that he was given at the dinner and auction.

Edited version of picture above - cropped and enhanced to give a better effect - it was really dark and a slide show, and since I was just a beginner with my cameras I was glad for editing software!

"Caught Kissing"
This is a picture of my brother and his wife. The wind was blowing and the dry ornamental grasses were moving with the wind. I caught them kissing while I was walking by and didn't want to miss taking this photo. I snapped this photo in a small opening between the grass and trees. (This was taken with my cell phone because I just couldn't miss this shot when I saw it and I didn't have my other camera. It fits perfectly in the 'axiom' category, showing depth of field, so I had to add it to my blog!)
