Simon's Weather Report, February 1, 2014

Hey y'all!!!

This is Simon, your very awesome meteorologist at Casa de Tribe Atherton.  I am writin to tell y'all that it is a wonderful day here in Nashville!  It is already 54 degrees outside, and my moms is sayin they're gonna take the puppies to the park.  My puppies really like the park, where they get to commune with the other puppies and run around and try again to take a drink from the scary, noisy water fountain when they's thirsty. Good for them, I say!!

As for me, I'm goin to tell you somethin really wonderful.  People, it is only 58 more days til the openin day of BASEBALL!!!!!!  I am so excited...

Simon Atherton, reportin from Wrigley Field, the greatest place on earth!!!!

My grandpa Jim--that's my mom's dad--was a HUGE baseball fan!  He could tell you statistics about players faster than my Mama Rainy could calculate them from folks in the WAY back time!

Because of my Grandpa Jim, who we all love and miss very much, we is all diehard Chicago Cubs fans, even though they got that ding dang billy goat curse and will likely never ever win a pennant again.

Dang goat.  :(

It don't matter if the Cubs can't win, 'cause it's a whole lotta fun to run around and exclaim that this is the year the Cubs is gonna win--it makes everyone laugh heartily and we all have a good time.  And really, y'all, baseball isn't even about the winnin so much as it's about the shit talkin.  You just ask my Mama Rainy--my mom took her to her first baseball games last year and she said my Mama Rainy was a born heckler!  I'm very proud of my Mama Rainy--I think we's a lot alike.




As you can see, I'm representin for my homeboy Yadier Molina.  He is my very favorite player, and we share Hispanic descent.  I wonder if my Grandpa Sanchez is in HIS family line??  I should ask Cousin Juan Mario next time I see him...

Anyways, today it's gonna be a real nice day in Nashville!  63 degrees for the high and real sunny.  Enjoy the puppy park and wherever else y'all might be headed.  This is Simon, signin out!
