Dale Murphy

I was recently able to attend the American Baseball Foundation's Annual Lead Off Dinner.  Former Atlanta Brave great Dale Murphy was the guest speaker.  I received some extra tickets at the last minute so Jessica, Josh and Mark were also able to attend.  

The dinner was held at The Club overlooking Birmingham.

  

The table we sat at was right up front.  That is Dale Murphy at the podium.  The man to the right of the photo is Tom Emanski.  

We were able to meet Dale Muphy before the event.  

Spelunking

We realized that there is an old abanded mine behind our house up near Vulcan.  We had to explore it.  These are the photos of Joel, Mark and myself in the mine.  

We could only go so far because the mine shaft was flooded.  

This was the view looking back up toward the entrance.  

We encountered many bats.  

Notice the old tracks that we are walking on.
