Today I went to visit The Negro Leagues Baseball Museum. The Royals Foundation pays for admission during the month of February for Black History Month.
Ruby Foster
Buck O'Neil
Baseball History
World Series Negro League Worlds Colored Champions

Negro American League Round Robin Championship 1952
Syd Pollock's Indianapolis Clowns
Barbershop Display
Life on the Road
The museum ends with life size statues of a baseball game.
To be honest I don't know much about baseball in general. It is not my favorite sport. I couldn't believe what all of these talented people went through.
Since I was in the area I thought I would stay on the baseball or sports theme.

It was fun today. I walked all around and learned lots. It was on the chilly side this morning but it felt good after the heat wave yesterday. I have a different type of adventure planned for tomorrow.
Until our next adventure.
