Darrin from the pest control company came over about 2pm. He re-baited the
ground squirrel traps. We were talking about the Dodgers, an employee of the
pest company he works for used to be a Dodger catcher from '82-'87. I said I had
always been a Dodger fan. His grandson is now and he asked Darrin who his
favorite Dodger was. He told him Sandy Koufax. His grandson had no idea who that
was!!! LOL.
