Because I Can

 Happy spring feelings continue as the weather gets warmer here in DC for a spell and the Nationals PR Dept was kind enough to post these on twitpic with handy HTML embedding codes attached. The water and the trees, Tyler Clippard and Brad Lidge, Wilson Ramos and Jesus Flores (the top of his head at least). I am a glass of lemonade away from contentment.

WIlson Gives Out Hugs at Nats Park

Beautiful slideshow of Wilson Ramos' press conference today at Nationals Park. Looking at these just make me smile. We are so lucky to have him back safe.

Edited to add:

Stole this video link from Nats Inquisition because it's got the Zim/Wilson hug in action and general happiness.

Wilson is Coming Home!

 I hadn't been in the door fifteen minutes back from the Wilson Ramos vigil at Nats Park before I saw the news that he had been found safe and was on his way home. I am still grinning like an idiot. I am usually not hippy dippy but I would like to think that these little lights in the darkness helped.

From earlier tonight:

Thank you to the Nationals for the excellent hot chocolate and permission to leave the signs and candles on the gate. Thanks to those who played the Wilson Ramos at-bat music, Take Me Out to the Ballgame, Who's on First, and of course Take on Me through the speakers.

Thank you to Alicia @DragBallwRamos for leading the effort. Thinking positive led to positive results. Now to plan the celebration party.

Ramos Vigil

e want Ramos safe at home.

Wilson Ramos

I bought tickets for Opening Day 2012 and my catcher better damn well be there in the lineup. Venezuela, do what you have to do.
