A mile high high
This was the first time I've been to a Rockies game and I had the best time. There were a lot of Boston fans in our section but that just made it more fun. This stadium is really nice and they've thought of everything. Here's a few pictures.
Prepping the field...

Taking the field...

The Boston Redsox WIN!!

Yes, the Rockies lost but it was still such a great experience!
Best quote heard walking out of the stadium..."bring back the curse!"(of the Bambino)

Ah! I'm so jealous, I'm green and it's not even close to St. Patrick’s Day!
It was a good game "WATCHING IT ON TV" and I would have liked to see the Rockies do better. The way they ended their season it would have been a great Cinderella story if they had pulled it off!
Happy Hallow's Eve Gaye.
Hope you and Jeff are doing ok. drive careful.
Why wasnt the workshop televised last night?
There is no Claire and there is no Rene... why do people have to act this way?
So Smedley thinks there is no claire, so that makes it gospel?
Yeah Galye, do you know why Channel 10 wasn't televising the Council Workshop?
Have a Safe Halloween!!!!
I'd like to point an interesting quirk in Claire's posts.
What is the difference between these two sentences?
1. I was supposed to bring a cherry pie , apple cider , and a side dish to the church picnic.
2. I was supposed to bring a cherry pie, apple cider, and a side dish to the church picnic.
Now go back through some of archives of posts and compare! Pay close attention to those posts that appear in ALL CAPS. I'm sure you find the results interesting or dismiss them completely.
I agree with EB, neither Rene nor Claire are real people and all parties involved need to grow up!
lol , you make 0 sense.
Well anon 7:35 perhaps a cup of coffee? I think what anon 6:20 is trying to point out is that Claire has an unusual habit of putting a space before her commas. That’s the only difference I see between the two sentences and I’d also agree that it is an unusual habit. If you go back into some of the older posts on this blog and pay attention to some of the ALL CAPS rants, you see the very same trait.
Now it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that Rene and Claire are pen names.
What's up with that?
I have no idea why the workshop was not televised. That would be a question for the city's bulletin board.
You can access it here
tom- well if you look at claire's plight,she fully supports walker and washburn.CAPS and ccu are opposite like renee.thats not rocket science either.
I’ve have no problem with anyone who posts under a pen name but let’s honest and set the record straight. There is no Rene and there is no Claire. I’ll donate $100 to their favorite charity if the walk up to me, shake my hand and show me a drivers license, California ID card, along with a utility bill that has a Fillmore address.
Please, I invite you to go back through the archives and read the old posts, look for that pattern, I’m sure what you will find will be very enlightening.
Tom I'll kick in a $50 too!
Tom,
Claire may have an unusual habit but she is not consistent.
I took this off her blog.
It is apparent your right and wrong.

This workshop has been anticipated for quite sometime, needless to say ,it's way overdue. This workshop will be laid out as of the following.
ok , please take my word that claire isnt caps or whomever else you might think it is.I know claire end of subject.
another point to bring out on your assertiveness and cocky behavior is that Im telling you that claire exists.I find it hard that Fillmore will embrace the "Joseph McCarthyism tactics" that you and Ken Smedley relish in. Grandiose assumptions are amusing but only last for so long.
And Gayle,you should be ashamed that you allow these rumors and speculatory comments. Claire Kennedy has not offended anyone here,and thus we should end this conversation so we can come to reality.This is what Ken Smedley wants these blogs to focus on and you fell for his trap.
P.S. Gayle- Im disappointed in you as a friend and on a professional level.
I also feel it was bad decision to allow Tom Fennell to become an official contributor to this blog. I can sure think of some better individuals to become contributors that will welcome all people and not spook people off. Some good,decent people that come to mind are:
Karin Diaz
Grace Donahue
Bob Stroh
Clay Westling
Jamey and Lynn Brooks
Eduardo Gonzalez.
Didn't Hitler and the Nazi's do the same,except for the shaking hand bit?
Gayle can remove me anytime she wants. I see the pool is up to $150, Rene? Claire? the ball is your court.
I happen to like Tom here or on any blog really.He speaks truth and is fair.If you people would just notice something obvious...Tom and Gayle are the ONLY people that are REAL!Claire and Rene (probably men)are only as real as your imagination makes them
another blogger bites the dust! later,Gayle and good luck with this blog,you will need it. This blog used to be worth visiting!
small man syndrome tom?
I've had an offer of $50 plus my $100. Anybody else? Remember this is for CHARITY!
Dearest Gayle and Tom;
Im flattered that Im the topic of discussion on this blog. It seems the real issues lurking in Fillmore are widely being ignored. This "$150.00 pool" that has been started by Tom is foolish and devilish. Please note that gambling is a sin and leads to a sickness.
In hindsight,this blog could get better if discussions were taken place on issue's of Fillmore instead of small talk of myself and my husband of our existence in Fillmore. Can't we all just get along or agree to disagree?
The choice is your's Gayle....
God Bless,
Claire Kennedy
do you like the octopus 95.9 fm station?
Claire: the topic of this blog post was my World Series adventure.
As you know, sometimes commenters go off in different directions. I try to block any inappropriate or offensive comments and I haven't seen anything here any worse than on any other blog including yours.
anonymous: 4:52 PM. Tom has done an excellent job. He's intelligent, a good writer and a clear head. He's never been malicious and it's not unreasonable to want to know who our fellow bloggers are. I don't want to publish yours or Tom's email address without permission but if you would like to send him a personal email send it to me and I will be happy to forward it to him. (yes everyone, Claire does have a valid email address)
I have always been open to having guest bloggers. If anyone would like to contribute topics send an email to gaylewashburn@sbcglobal.net and I will provide access as a guest.
p.s. Tom isn't gambling - he's fund raising for charity.
Anonymous 4:52 Sorry, I addressed you in the wrong paragraph in my comments. I meant to address that third paragraph to Claire. I was addressing you regarding the guest bloggers. (hope this makes sense)
Dearest Gayle;
Although I greatly appreciate your response, However your incorrect by stating that "Tom isnt gambling,he is fundraising for charity." For your knowledge;A pool of money ,which bet's of monies are accrued is certainly gambling. Denial is a terrible excuse for ignorance!
Gayle,please stop sugar coating the facts.
God Bless,
Claire Kennedy
Nothing from Rene and I’ll just have to accept that the good Christian persona doesn’t have a charity of choice.
Charity is the epitome of perfection in the Christian life. It is the "greatest" of the three abiding virtues.
Isn't deception a sin?
who cares tom,move on !
Apathy, who cares!
Tom, my charity of choice is CCA.
I’m not a Bible Bookworm or anything when I think about who or what God is, and if I can grasp an accurate understanding of who we are in comparison, we have nothing to be prideful about.
"Pride is like body odor. Everyone notices except the person who has it." ;)
Thanks Rene but remember, we have to meet first! Still interested?
Angry Anon: I know, I know, I know.
Short man syndrome, Hitler, Nazi, Old, Fat, Dumb, Ugly, Weak, Stupid, Short, Out of Shape, Helpless and I need to be taught a lesson. What else? Oh, my tattoos are disgusting and vile.
There was once a time Angry Anon that anger, the need to get even and just a constant burning rage ruled my life. With help I've been able to move forward but the past is very ugly when I look back. If you're just trying to get my goat that's one thing, but if you really mean to hurt then I'd ask that you consider seeking help. Anger is very addictive and destructive, please don't let it rule your life!
Please give it some thought. tfennell@rtfsolutions.com
Well,then I would have to say to you that when mocking people ie: the Kennedy's and Rene expect a not so kind response. That's fine that you do not think they exist or approve of their commentary,but to continue to harp on them is very childish.I see no anger,only loyalty to friends.If you had friend's Tom,wouldn't you want them to stand by your side? I know I would!Think about it dude!
Anon 3:35
RE: "That's fine that you do not think they exist or approve of their commentary"
Please help me and point out where I have disapproved of either Rene's or Claire's commentary.
Lighten up dude before you pop a gasket!
