The Yard

August 9, 2009

This may seem entirely unrelated to baseball and athletic performance, but on closer examination, it is!  File this one under, “health, staying healthy, getting every edge you can over the competition, taking your game to the next level.” You gotta take care of the machine and eating right is a good start.

So here’s what happened.  A plant died in front of our house and to replace it, we decided to plant some food. This was a few weeks ago and BAM! Now we’re eating. So cool.

So in classic Mayne style, we ripped out the entire front yard and are in the process of planting a garden. I’ve been a vegetarian for many, many years so I’m pretty excited by this development. My neighbors are less than thrilled. I’ll keep you posted on the progress and results.

What's left of the front yard.
