In 2005 I was asked to go down to Phoenix, Arizona to play in the 35-and-over MSBL World Series. I was just finishing college, in the middle of my last term, and I didn't know if I could make it happen. Thanks to Randy Enns it did happen, and I decided to bring my video camera with me.

We played seven games in nine days. When I wasn't warming up or playing ball, I was shooting video and photographs. Logistically it was a nightmare, but I managed to have a great time and get some pretty good content. When I came home I put this little mini-doc together.

A few things to consider:

1. I did the video as a favor to Randy and the team, but as you'll see it quickly became a bit of an homage to my longtime friends and roommates on the road, Byron Tait, Peter Ballance and Lane 'Fuzz' Parker. I love those guys. 

2. Peter drank a few beers during his interview :)

3. Byron was as somber as I've ever seen him during this trip. It sucks being injured when you are accustomed to contributing so much.

4. We did a lot of driving so I took a lot of driving footage and turned it into a chapter. 

5. I had no idea how to end it so I didn't. To be continued ...

This is nothing more than a personal documentation of our trip. All music in this family vacation video was purchased.
