Day 2 Medical Clinic

Today the Med Team was at Batey Guazabal. It was fun to be here because this is one of the batey's we visited last year and many repeat team members found old friends. It was another big clinic; we saw 138 patients. Already this year we have seen almost as many patients as we saw in four days last year.

Ian and Connor got a Wiffle Ball game going.

Hayden French and Emma Linskey got a Spanish lesson from one of our translators over lunch.

Mason and Hayden work with Ms. Garcia distributing parasite medicine.

Mason and Emma's mom, Rachel Countryman, has a great snuggle with one of the babies.

I really like having the sheet aluminum, it super rewarding to hear that metal contact sound. Especially when the batter watches it go by thinking it's a ball. The only problem is my neighbor and I are the only ones who like to play competitively. We would like to start a league around us, Savannah, Georgia, but all of my attempts to recruit players have turned up empty.

Any suggestions?

WIFFLEBALL UMP TAKES LINE DRIVE TO THE GROIN

The Washington, D.C.-area Potomac Wiffleball League is extremely competitive, and an unfortunate umpire was on the receiving end of some of that competitiveness this weekend. A line drive from a Blandsford Barnburner drilled the third base ump in a very sensitive area, dropping him on the spot. He required assistance leaving the field and did not return. More...
