Baseball in Israel...Vy not!

The time has finally arrived. Mike is set to go and is headed to New York first, then off to Israel. He is very excited and anxious to get there. It is about a 10 hour flight from NY to Israel, but Mike has his Ipod ready and said he is going to try to sleep as much as possible. They only have a few days before their first game, so I am sure they will be busy trying to meet their teammates and trying to get settled. I am so excited for him, this is an experience he will never forget. I will miss him, but it is only 2 months! Sure will be quiet around here.
The summer is going good. I have been working at Publix and catching up on some sleep. It is nice not having to wake up at 6 am every day and not working 7 days a week. I am sure the summer will fly by and that before I know it school is back in session. We will have a new principal when I go back, that should be interesting. I hear nothing but good about him, but you know how things are when someone new steps in. I am sure some things will change. We have also had a major turn over in management at Publix this summer. Just about everyone has shifted stores including our store manager. I guess it is just a summer of change.
Zach is enjoying his summer so far. He has been hanging out with his friends, riding bikes, skating, typical young teenage stuff. He is going on vacation soon too with his Dad and when he comes back his birthday is right around the corner. After his birthday he wants to work at Publix as a bagger and earn a bit of spending money for himself. At that age they can't work too many hours but it will be good for him to realize the value of a dollar.
Thant's about it for now, I will keep you posted on the goings on in Israel, or of course you can stay updated at www.israelbaseballleague.com.
