(2008/07/20) You try to do everything right. You eat from all the major food groups. You hit the gym regularly. You read the labels to make sure you’re not ingesting bad-for-you things. Bedtime is at the same time every night, you gave up smoking and drinking, and you buckle up when you get behind the wheel.

(2008/06/28) Author: Anne Fredrickson About the book: “The Baseball Brothers” is a children’s book about the Fredrickson Brothers Baseball Team. The team, which played traveling amateur ball in the 1920s, was made up entirely of brothers. The book tells the true story of 12 brothers who played baseball together in the Lakeville, Minn., area in the 1920s. The team was made up of nine players, a batboy and two coaches, then aged 11 through 36. Through working together on the farm and playing together as a team, the brothers developed lifelong friendships. None of the brothers moved farther than 13 miles away from the farm where they were raised. In the book, a child tells of her grandfather’s days on the team. She tells of how the novelty drew fans from miles around on horseback and in old Model Ts. The story recounts the brothers’ most famous feats, including a game-saving tackle at home plate and an unlikely victory over a tough opponent.

You envisioned the fun: you, the family, the open road and a few kitschy tourist traps before the Big Destination.
