So the Muses hover over the athletic fields in awe, out of their realm, and pondering what all this activity means. The blog of Aug. 27 showed the concession stand/lavatory facility well underway, and of course, it has moved forward since then. The Muses don’t read blogs (although this blogger wonders sometimes who is reading over her shoulder), nor do they don’t have the savy that we mortals have—theirs is of a different sort (see the blogs on the theater construction back in the summer/fall of 2008 when the Muses stirred the air with their excitement). They do know what bricks and mortar are, and so they share some anticipation.
The softball field scene is a complete mystery to the Muses, however. The digging of a dug-out (well, what else could you call it, they wonder) and the measuring of the bullpen/batting cage (what will these mortals think of next? Bulls will be batting?) will reveal their purposes only gradually. Blogger will have to arrange a meeting with Ms. Gunning to instruct our ghostly friends. Blogger, too, could use some instruction, as Ms. Gunning knows well.
