This morning, around 9:45, a famous Baseball player and his lovely wife, went into Outer Space with Kinky, Tony and me! And we— launched into a fun conversation! It was a blast!
He and his wife are friends of Kinky’s. Kinky had invited them, last month, to come out to see our rescue ranch, because they are both big time animal lovers, and she is involved with several animal rescue groups.
After we had a great visit in Outer Space—Kinky, Tony and I gave them a tour of the rescue ranch, as his wife handed out treats to every dog and petted them. Our dogs loved her! Tony was on cloud nine, because he is and has always been, a big fan of this man and his team—so they talked baseball—while Kinky and I talked dogs with his wife.
Here’s a hint: He struck out Willie Mays on September 22, 1964, on his 18th birthday! He pitched a no-hitter on July 9, 1976 and in 2002, his team honored him and retired his number 49.
After the tour, we returned to Outer Space and visited, until it was time for Kinky to leave. He is doing the ‘O’Reilly Factor’ tonight at seven. He invited them to follow him up to Kerrville, and meet up at Wolfmuellers Books, so he could give them a copy of his new book, and then join him for lunch at Conchitas, around the corner from Wolfmuellers Books. They said yes!
A few minutes later, the caravan of two—drove away. Tony and I then skipped into the trailer to look at the pictures I had taken of Judy and the Houston Astros # 49—Larry Dierker! They are great people and they have promised to come back soon! I can’t wait! And yes—they loved Outer Space!
