Busy Day of Ball and Buying

tnfishdaddy Saturday, 5/17/2014

Been a busy day today. At 9 this morning, I had to help hand out diplomas at my high school's graduation. Unfortunately, my son also had a baseball game at 9 in a town about 45 minutes away. I had to miss that game but I was going to make the 12:30 game. On the way to the game, I had a few minutes to kill. I hit up a Walmart that I never get to go to. Turns out that they had some new stuff that I hadn't seen. Here is the haul from that store.

I picked up this pack of Mustangs for my youngest. He loves Mustangs.


Also found 4 of these Datsuns I have been looking for. An older gentleman started looking after I had grabbed what I wanted and I started talking to him. He didn't have one of these yet so I gave him one of mine.


I don't normally buy a lot of fantasy cars but this looked pretty cool.


Had to buy a little American to ease my guilt of buying and building Italian lately.


I'm a sucker for flames.


Enough of this. I need to get to my son's game. After the game, my wife needs to run some errands so I grab the boys and head to the house. Of course, along the way, I might as well check out some more stores I don't normally get to stop at. Second stop of the day is a hobby store.

Found some FTEs.


Bet you could get a few grams of lead in these.



Decided to stop at Target for the last stop.

Son found a Mustang for his collection and another Datsun.


More flames.



Well after all this shopping, we head to the house. I put the weedeater in the boys hands and opened up the garage door to enjoy the cool weather and check out my new cars at the workbench. Next thing you know, the mailman pulls into the driveway. I wasn't expecting anything but here are two boxes.


I have no idea. Opened up the first one.


Surprise. I had cashed in some points with the Walmart Rewards Program.

Four of these.


And two of these.


Opened up the other box and remembered what it was while I was opening it. I had found a guy in a Face Book group that had a few cars for sell that I didn't have.

Picked up this bad boy for the truck collection.



Grabbed these just because.



Once again, way too many cars in one day. Please don't tell my wife. :)

So who won the ball games?


  • Not my son's team. It is a travel ball team. Little better competition. — tnfishdaddy
  • Problem is, a couple of the kids on the team aren't quite at that level so we tend to have trouble with the better teams. — tnfishdaddy
  • It's all good. They are learning. Really good coach. — tnfishdaddy
  • Had to play the same team that beat us again today. My son pitched and shut them down. — tnfishdaddy
  • Also went 4 for 4 at the plate. Proud daddy. — tnfishdaddy

I like that project speeder....never saw it before...has a mad max look to it.


  • I need to get one and try it out, I have a feeling it could be fast.... — KandORacing
