Last night, my first trip to lovely Bill Tipton Field, home of the Carl Albert Titans. Doubleheader...the end of a long Day 2 of a four-day JV tournament.

The Titans' field is a nice facility. The dressing room is a bit like a jail cell (it's about 6' x 8'), but overall, not too bad. We even get our own lockers...

...and most importantly, AIR CONDITIONING.

Never underestimate the value of good HVAC after calling in the Oklahoma heat.
I've talked before about how great it is to be back home in Oklahoma, where I can drive 5 minutes in one direction and be in the middle of town, and drive 5 minutes in the other direction and be out in the country, surrounded by cow pasture, with minimal civilization in sight. Carl Albert is in Midwest City, but sort of on the outskirts of town. In fact, nearly 2/3 of the schools I work at are either out in small towns or out on the edge of Oklahoma City. I prefer it this way, because after driving in the endless suburbs of Denver for 12 years, it's very nice to be driving at night from a job and have nothing but this:

Tonight: Freshmen doubleheader at Southmoore.
