Hey Little Brother Wyatt,

Sorry for the lateness to respond to this thread. We've
been quite busy with work at the Minor League Baseball
Park, participating in the recent Annual Gas & Steam
Engine Show and more.

Your birthday party on July 4 sounded like you and
everyone attending had a great time. (Mark): WHOW! What
a great menu of foods that were served! You cooked the
corn on the cob on the grill, right?

WHOW! What a great surprise Kaylee and Allison did for
YOU and Brooks presenting you with baseball game tickets
to see Minnesota Twins and Detroit Tigers play in Minneapolis.

We each had the opportunity to see both teams play in
Spring when our College Baseball Team got to go to Florida
for the Spring Break, and we saw those two teams, besides
a few others. Great baseball players we watched on all
teams.

So Wyatt, tell us about the Road Trip you and Brooks had
to go to Minneapolis, etc. What site seeing did you see
along the way, what places did you get food at, and tell
us about staying in motels, etc.? Did owners at the motels
think it was funny two young men like you were traveling
alone, etc.?

You visited friends in Twin Cities? How'd you meet them,
in college?

Tell about the baseball game, who got hits, any homeruns,
who pitched, etc. DETAIL! DETAILS!

Thanks for the update on you and your team playing summer
baseball. Sorry you got a loss back on July 11 and GREAT
you hit into two double plays & single. Glad you and your
team were able to win your game on your July 5th birthday!
Did the team sing "Happy Birthday" to you, what kind of
celebrating took place there at the game, etc.?

We mentioned recently was the Annual Gas & Team Engine Show
which we each took part in driving gas tractors and Mark
again got a refresher course how to drive a steam engine,
which was a 12 ph. Advance Rumbley, and we took turns helping in the sawmill, pitching wheat into the threshing
machine, helping to make wood shingles and we even got some of the crowd on hand to participate in a Tug of War with
Mark pulling a rope on one end with a steam engine and on
the other end of the rope people pulled to see if they could
stop the steam engine trying to pull in "low" gear in reverse.

The two morning breakfasts were filling with pancakes & syrup served, scrambled eggs, toast & butter & jam, hash
browns, different juices, etc. was served.

Our girlfriends loved riding around on the gas and steam
engine tractors with us, and each day there was a parade.
Some of the kinds of gas tractors were Case, John Deere,
The General, Massie Fergasons, Oliver, and for steam Case,
Nicholas & Shepard, Advance Rumbley, Port Huron.

Sorry to hear lack of rain has effected in you having really, really good hay and other crops. Did you get any
rain since you last posted?

Mark's grandpa and neighors have had two good haycutings,
and wheat crops too, and corn is really growing sky-high.
Some corn crops are already getting ears of corn appearing.

Good to hear Wyatt that you and grandpa had a GREAT TIME
driving in the Annual Tractor Trek. How many miles did you
travel this year? That was really neat to hear about the
parade/trek drove past that Nursing Home and patients came
out waving as you went by. Wondering how many of them grew up or owned farms and seeing the old tractors helped make
their day?

Good to hear YOU and REGGIE having some great quality-fun
time together.

Little Brother Wyatt have you been able to go swimming
alot this summer and get a great summertime tan? We
have, and our summer tans look really great on us. It's
so comical when to see when we are changing or showering
after a good swim at Mark's grandparents farm which has a
GREAT-COOL LAKE to cool-off and swim in., laughing and
seeing how our "white" butts stand out so well. Has this
happened to you Wyatt, while getting a great tan this summer?

When our girlfriends are around with us it is great
seeing them in their bikinis, and we have to watch it
so they don't see us lose our swimsuits or while we
change, etc. They would get a REAK-GOOD_VIEW of us! LOL.

Next week we will be away attending College Basketball Camp and then when we return we'll start up football practices,
etc. So it will be a busy time, and we still will be able
to work some days at our Minor League Baseball jobs.

(Mark): I've been able to help co-broadcast some of the games. It is really fun, and I can't believe some people
remember me playing high school sports and now college
sports and I've been getting "Fan Mail!"

Guess that's all for now, keep in touch Little Brother
Wyatt and don't forget to wish Brooks a "Happy Birthday"
when he celebrates on August 14. We left him a "Happy
Birthday" thread so he doesn't think we have forgotten
him as we'll be returning home from Hoop Camp when his
birthday rolls around. Speaking of Birthday, how does
it feel not being a teenager anymore and you going to
like being in your 20s?

Continue to have a Great Summer now Wyatt, and have more
fun with Reggie!
they don't get a "real eye-load-ful"! LOL.
