We did not have a Camarillo Cosmos track meet today as Jacob and Michael were involved in a huge, three day Civil War reenactment somewhere in the Inland Empire about 150 miles away. Without her brother in attendance, Mary also took a day off from track today thus freeing Laurie and I up do do other things on this fine Spring day.
I opted to exercise my First Amendment
Constitutional Right of Assembly
By days end, I became well aware that this action, shall we say, disturbed at least three of my former high school athletes who are in support of our President's regime.
One even went so far as to share with me, "You're missing out on the best President in our lifetime."
Let's just agree to disagree on this subject.
This pretty much sums up how I
felt about today's demonstration
Interesting tree that greeted us at the
Ventura County Government Center
So along with a dear friend
we entered the site of today's protest
We saw several friends and neighbors at the rally whose names and photos I am purposely not posting for privacy reasons.
Lots of people were at the site
There were lots of clever handmade signs at the protest.
Simple but accurate
A bit off color
Nice play on words
Watch out for . . .
. . . unruly women on a mission!
American Dental Association approved
Good point
Not handmade but still effective
Linking him to the . . .
. . . 20th Centuries biggest villains
Boldly protesting in Spanish
Pleading with Nature
A great turnout INDEED!
We returned home for a few hours and then Laurie and I joined Koreen and Brian FitzGerald for the drive back to Ventura yet again.
This time for this beach city's fun
Spring Wine Walk
We were greeted by great music
and by, what else, good wines
Lots of revelers parading around
pedestrian only Main Street
Yes, there was dancing in the streets!
A typical FitzGerald-Contreras scene,
watching the ladies shopping for jewelry
I couple of stops for adult beverages and then dinner at a new spot for us, the Yard Bar & Grill, plus all of the arts and crafts displays along the street made for a good end to a long but productive day.
On to the daily EuroBall report . . .
The Austrian DI season began today
Fehérvár Enthroners vs. Salzburg Ducks
Our coaching friend and EuroBall lifer, Michael Wood, is the Enthroners' Head Coach this season.
His club, formerly a member of the European League of Football, is located in a suburb of Budapest, Hungary but this year plays in the Austrian League for a more competitive situation than they would find in their own country.
The Czech Republic's Prague Black Panthers also are part of the Austrian DI League for the same improved competition issues.
A competitive loss for the
Enthroners today
Up next, the Italian results . . .
Only one Italian DI game on
the slate this weekend

win over the Ferrara Aquile (2-1)

A Result from Mexico today
I just like the sharp looking University of Nuevo Leon Auténticos Tigres uniforms.
Now for our latest report from Nostradamus . . .
The 2044 season of Huskies
football will be memorable!
The Huskies have done a great job signing the top athletes from the nursery schools all over the country.
I'll be 97 years old in 2044 but, apparently it will be worth the wait.
If you believe in these sort of things.
OUCH!
It truly would be the right thing
Thought provoking
Some days are more interesting than others, today was one of them.
