Highlights From Our Baseball Spring Training Rally


"If you build it, they will come."

Well, special thanks to Aileen and George Ormsby for planning it, and we all did come to the Phoenix area for our Spring Rally, March 14-18, 2007. The Ormsbys did a super job of putting together this event. The weather was like summer (90's) and baseball was also hot!

We had a choice of 12 teams to watch during the middle of the Cactus League Season of Spring Training. Our group saw the San Diego Padres play the Texas Rangers at the Billy Parker Field in Surprise, Arizona. What a beautiful recreational facility and a perfect place to watch America's favorite pastime! George's selection of seats were right next to the Padre's dugout and we were able to see the players really up close, and even talk to them personally. It was a great evening, even though the Padres fell short by one run.

We were fortunate to have Wally Neufeld, the Service and Warrantee Manager from LTV, join us with his wonderful family. Wally gave us all the latest news from the factory and information about the '07 Morden Rally, as well as doing some troubleshooting for us. We hope to be lucky enough to get Wally back again next year!

We would like to hear from you with fun places to go for more adventures for this year. Some of us are going to the Jazz Festival at Three Rivers in April. (See the blog for more info.) If you have any ideas for a get together place in the Arizona, Nevada, or California areas, please let us know, either by posting a message on this blog or e-mailing us. Snail-mail works too! Our e-mail is: LTVtravelers@aol.com and our mailing address: 16428 Martin Lane, Huntington Beach, CA 92649.

Hope to see you soon,
Marie and Ted Teach
