Kinston Indians

On Friday night August 8, 2008 the church held its first main activity since Grace and I arrived. We traveled to Kinston, NC for a minor league baseball game between the Kinston Indians and the Salem Avalanche. One of our men that we recently led to the Lord, Leroy Smith, came out with us, along with Marshall Smith and his family and Pete Gladson. It was Leroy's first time ever to a live baseball game. We had a great time. I had to have my traditional sunflower seeds although Wal-Mart only carried the original and not the BBQ flavored. The Kinston Indians jumped off to an early league in the very first inning with 10 runs. The final score was 12 to 2. There was also a special promotion for the night: fireworks following the game. Grace, Leroy and I were the only ones that stayed. The fireworks were good and overall we all enjoyed the activity. I thought the ballpark was nice and the layout was convenient to drive into, park, and leave. Next,Lord willing, we are going to try our hand at bowling.
