Riding into the Sunset

The City of Corpus Christi built a pretty nice bike path along the Joe Fulton Corridor (the shipping channel) to allow for long distance bikers to get off the road that is frequented by heavy trucks. They did a really nice job, but apparently put it a little close to the water, because it's been shut down for a while now due to the parallel cliff being eroded by the Nueces Bay and threatening to swallow the path. It's a great place to take the kids and dogs since there really aren't many others that go there, except for a few fishermen. We couldn't take the path very far due to the potential collapse, but we went far enough to let the big dog get into the water for a minute and the boys to Evel Knievel down the hill on their bikes. The spring weather has been fantastic for evenings down by the water, so we're taking advantage of it.

Pitchers and Catchers Reporting

Spring training may be going on for the big leagues right now, but down here in Pony League the season has already begun! Adam and Nolan are back at it, with Adam taking on coach pitch for the second time and Nolan returning for Peewee T-Ball. Adam had his first game last night and went 1 for 2 with 2 RBIs (definitely not a bad start). He played left center for a couple of innings and then moved up to the hot corner on third base. Nolan will take the field with the Giants later this week and I'm sure it will be an enthralling T-ball contest for the 3 and 4 year-olds. As for us spectators, we're just enjoying the spring weather!
