“Stan Musial, the longtime St. Louis Cardinals baseball Hall of Famer, passed away Saturday at age 92. Stan Musial had a lifetime batting average of .331, including 3,630 hits, 475 home runs and 1,951 runs-batted-in.” http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Sports/2013/0120/Stan-Musial-remembered-for-hitting-prowess-and-ebullient-personality-video
"was a poor boy who struck it rich in many ways through the wonders of baseball. I learned to hit with a broomstick and a ball of tape and I could always get that bat on the ball." ~ Stan Musial quote ~
I think most of you know that I am a big St. Louis Cardinal fan. Stan Musial was active in the days of my youth. He was a great favorite of my dad who was one of the world’s greatest baseball fans. I have this nice thought that maybe daddy is shaking Stan’s hand right now and wishing him God Speed!

It is bitter cold here this morning with the wind chill at 6 below zero. I have a doctor appointment this morning and I am not looking forward to going out in the cold to get the car started.
I hope this is a really good week for us all. Be kind to your fellow man. Stay safe and be happy!!
