Haven't been to an MLB game in #SF or #Oakland for years.
Just watch them on #TV when I can now but I have been going to minor league games in #Modesto, #Stockton & #Sacramento.
Now that the #Athletics have moved to #Sac, I'll have to consider whether to go up to see their games but I'd still rather go there just to watch the #AAA #RiverCats
May also take the time to go to #WestOakland to watch a #SemiPro #Ballers game this season. Just heard they've opened a food mall across the street which will give me another reason to go there to check it out.
I'm currently planning to drive down to Modesto to watch the #SingleA minor league game between the #ModestoNuts & #SanJoseGiants on Sunday at 1pm.
Go Giants!!!! 
Farm Security clients during applications for aid under Tenant Purchase Act. Stockton, California

![The image is a black and white photograph featuring three men seated side by side against a plain background. They appear to be in their middle ages or older, wearing clothing typical of the early to mid-20th century.
The man on the left has his arms crossed over his chest, with a serious expression on his face as he looks slightly off-camera. He is dressed in a dark suit and tie, along with several pins attached to his lapel. His posture suggests skepticism or discomfort.
The middle man's demeanor is more relaxed; he rests one hand on the armrest of the chair while crossing his legs at the ankles. Dressed in casual attire—a sweater over a collared shirt—he looks directly into the camera with a neutral expression, suggesting resignation rather than defiance.
The man on the right has arms folded and appears to be looking slightly down or away from the camera as well. His clothing is similar to that of his companion in the middle; he wears a jacket with multiple buttons, indicating practicality over style.
A handwritten note at the top left corner reads "3-PPP81," which could signify an identification number for archival purposes. The bottom right contains text: "Farm Security clients during applications for aid under Tenant Purchase Act. Stockton, California." This indicates that these men were part of a program aimed at assisting farmers with land ownership through the Tenant Purchase Act in Stockton, California.

At the Self Help Association, dairy farm unit, California
![The alt text for this image could be: "Dorothea Lange's photograph of an elderly man in a hat and coat, taken at the Self Help Association dairy farm unit near Stockton, California between 1943-48." This caption provides information about Dorothea Lange, known as a pioneering photographer whose work documented life during the Great Depression. She is particularly famous for her series of photographs that captured American workers and their families in search of employment.
The man appears to be middle-aged or older with lines on his face indicating age, possibly reflecting hardship or weathering from outdoor labor. His attire suggests practicality - a hat protecting against sun exposure and heavy coat suited for colder conditions. The monochromatic tones emphasize the seriousness of the subject's expression while also highlighting the historical context in which Lange captured this moment.
The handwritten text on the bottom right corner indicates "2390," likely a reference number or code used by Dorothea Lange to catalog her photographs, and additional annotations provide insight into the photograph’s origin. This image is an example of documentary photography that seeks to portray reality through photographic means during times of social upheaval.

Applicant couple, seeking aid under Tenant Purchase Act. Stockton California
![The image is a black and white photograph showing two individuals sitting in chairs outside what appears to be an office of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Farm Security Administration, as indicated by the sign on the door behind them.
On the left side, there is a woman wearing a coat with buttons down the front, presumably from the mid-20th century judging by her style and the photograph quality. She has short hair covered with what seems like a dark hat or cap, and she's holding a small purse in her lap while resting one hand on top of it.
On the right side is an older-looking man wearing glasses (presumably as reading aids) leaning his head forward onto his hands, which are clasped together. He wears a coat that appears to be more worn out than hers and has visible wrinkles or creases along with what could potentially be age spots on the back of his hand.
Both individuals seem contemplative or waiting for something, possibly in relation to seeking aid under Tenant Purchase Act as mentioned in their captioned context; however, there's no direct indication within this image itself regarding why they are present. The setting appears somber and serious based on their body language and expressions captured by the photographer Dorothea Lange.

The weather these last couple of days turned in a more Spring type direction, so we made the most of it with a nice day out yesterday.
We met some swans, and also this absolute madlad of a Collie who attempted (failed) to fight one of the swans. It was ok though because shortly after his humiliating defeat, he found the Best Stick at the bottom of a puddle.
Traipsed around the river and various muddy walking trails, saw lots of dogs.
Found a giant mushroom for the pikmin.
And popped in to TWO Greggses on the way home but neither had any stotties left. Absolutely tragic end to an otherwise lovely day 
Personal Angle: I moved away long ago, but I'm originally from California's oft-derided San Joaquin Valley. I cling to this single image as proof that my favorite punk band once played a gig there, far from its sleazy North Beach comfort zone. 1980, which plunks it right in the middle of their "Maserati/Gangster Funk" period. #1980s #KilledByDeath #Punk #SanFrancisco #SFPunk #Stockton

We lost a very special person, friend and amazing activist this week. I was lucky enough to meet Bill soon after he arrived in #Stockton and began working hard on so many #environmental issues. Definitely time to pour one out or light a pipe in #BillJennings honor! https://calsport.org/news/legendary-california-fishery-and-water-quality-activist-bill-jennings-dies-at-age-79/

In my early days doing #genealogy, I posted my database as web pages to my site. I wasn’t thinking about privacy at all. I got an email from a young woman in #Brazil asking why her mother was named on my site.
I removed the data, but we became friends and I learned that her branch had left #Genoa #Italy for Brazil about the time mine left fot #Stockton, Calif.
I don’t think information about living persons should be posted. Not in our current world.
