Free Soil!

Attention fellow gardeners:

I ordered 4 cubic yards of screened super soil from Boston Bark, and have about 1 full cubic yard remaining. If you have a shovel and a wheelbarrow/pickup (no, really), please contact me at nfgaudio[at]gmail[dot]com. Priority goes to individuals who can take the most.

Thanks!

Does anyone know of a fun baseball or softball league?

In the spring a young woman's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of baseball...

No, seriously, last week's weather made me itch to play baseball or softball again, and I haven't in years. Can anyone recommend a local league, and/or loose association of pick-up games? I found this: http://www.bostonbaseball.com/massachusetts.php but it seems like a lot of information to go through, and I might have better luck with personal recommendations.

I'm looking for something not very competitive. I am not a very competitive person, and I'm also not a good baseball player. Also, I can't join a team that will need me to be there for every game, because my work schedule is unpredictable and includes some weekends. On the other hand, I'm also looking for a group that will not describe themselves as a drinking team with a baseball problem.

Anyone have any ideas? Recommendations (or words of caution) if you are familiar with a specific league?

Thanks!
