Boys of Summer

Steve Adolph and Matt Leuck loved baseball. So, in the summer of 1997, they made plans to tour our country’s ballparks when Matt's son, Brandon graduated high school. In the summer of 1998, Matt was diagnosed with brain cancer. He died February of '99. This summer of 2011, Steve and 19-year-old Brandon leave for that trip. Mid-trip, they will meet Brandon's sister, Lauren, along with Steve's g-daughter, daughter, and wife in DC for sightseeing and more baseball. This is an account of that trip.
