Well... not Baseball, but as a child my Dad, Aunt and their childhood

friend in Greenwood Lake, NY played some wintertime games with "The

Babe". Enclosed is a picture of my Dad (left) posing with a snowman

they built. My Dad just turned 76 last week and still has the

softball he signed when he was a child along with a number of

memorabilia pieces of the time. Family stories passed along also

tell of my Grandmother teaching Babe how to make a mean batch of

chili!
