I have no advice...

...but I did just want to say that your wife rocks.

PTBNL!

Wow, no kidding.

Would LOVE to go to one of those someday. After you go, please post a diary about your experience, with pictures if you have any.

Al, I can't believe you have never

been.  You seem like such a natural to have experienced this.

You're right...

... but it's pretty pricey. That's a really nice gift the diary writer got.

Someday...

Cubs camp

Very pricey, indeed.  I'm still trying to figure out how my wife robbed a bank and got away with it  : )

There is a book about the camp....

written by an attendee, the same year my best friend attended and he is prominently mentioned. My friends name is Brian. Described as movie star handsome in the book. You can bet he got teased about that! This was 1994 and he loved it! I imagine though, that some of the players there in 1994 are no longer participants, but there should still be some great players to hang out with.

AH.....found the book. Sometimes A Fantasy: Midlife Adventures With Baseball Heroes by Jeff Guinn. If your library has a copy, I would recommend it. Amazon has it for $35 which amazes me. I wouldn't think it would be that much.

Thanks.

I'll try to locate it and check it out although I'm guessing much has changed in 13 years.  Thanks for the tip.

I saw an article about fantasy camps in Newsweek not too long ago and Hundley's got a nice write up. Like I said, I'm pretty excited about potentially rubbing elbows with guys I grew up watching: Cardenal, Kessinger, Jenkins, Jody Davis, "Bull" Durham, "Zonk", Bobby D.
