Oklahoma Winds

[RWPatten]

This has been quite an experience in my 1st full year of umpiring. Yesterday at a MS game, winds consistently at 30+ MPH, gusts over 50. You may have seen the destruction outside of OKC by wildfires. Over the last 2 weeks, every game I have called has had winds over 20 MPH. Gotta Love Oklahoma!

Has been a great year so far. I have got to call all levels, from MS through Varsity. I even called a JV/9th DH by myself. I will be in my 9th day in a row calling games. And the checks are starting to come in.

If you want to umpire, the OKC area is always needing umps. No problem getting games here. The Little leagues need them for the summer too.

Out here in SW Kansas it's the same stuff. My game yesterday had similar winds, with colders temps than you had too.

OKC is four hours away, or I'd take you up on the offers of games:p
