And we love Dino.
It was a really great day today until we lost the game to the LAAngels. We did not lose that game the Home Plate Umpire gave it to the Angels.  He had two bad calls. Then he threw our Manager out for complaining.Â
Joann saved the day when she came in with a CD of the "Dean Martin Variety Shows".   We watched it twice it was so good. There were some great stars in this first one like Frank Sinatra, Johnny Carson, Orson Wells, Goldie Hawn, Ann Margaret, to name a few.  The best one I think was the skit with Bob Newhart where he wants to return a toupee his wife had bought him.  It was a riot.
Of course, Dean's singing was the greatest. He was a favorite of our whole family not only because he was a great performer but he came from our home town.Â
They have a big celebration in Steubenville every year on the anniversary of his birth. We were there one year for it early on.
One year when Dean and Jerry Lewis were together they came to Steubenville. There was a parade and they rode in an open car. My friend Margaret and I stood on Market Street watching the parade. It was a thrill to see both Dean and Jerry.
My Husband knew Dean both being Italian and about the same age, they traveled in the same crowds.  Margaret's family knew Dean and his family also.Â
I have enjoyed this DVD so much I have forgotten about the ball game.
Hope your day has been a pleasant one also.

Love and prayers from here to there
