Yesterday at the Indians game was supposed to be an promo for Earth Day at the Kid's Fun Day activities. The Earth Day Coalition was going to have activities for kids to do like powering a TV with a bicycle and stuff like that... But it was to cold, so they will reschedule that. (Remember Earth Fest is next weekend at the Cleveland Zoo!)
But the reason I went is that my boss (former president of EarthDay Coalition and designer of the solar panels at the Jake) was throwing out the first pitch! I was slightly disappointed, because he did not get to go the mound to pitch. For some strange reason, I don't understand, they pulled the tarp out halfway and were in a weather delay for 45 minutes, and when the tarp is out no one is allowed to go to the field... But it did not start snowing and freezing rain until AFTER they started the game... Go figure...
In any case sitting there for 2 hours (we only stayed for 4 innings, then our toes started to go numb and we left) made me remember that it is only mid April, and in Ohio, mid April is still pretty early, we could still have a real snow fall, and frost is likely for another month...
