from the ground as his good leg.

The moment i saw the foot, I realized he had some kind of leg problem.

"I broke my ankle and the doctor gave me a choice:

"Crutches until it heals, or this contraption that will keep the weight off your foot."

Once the mystery of the contraption was solved, I looked up....and up....and up!

He was six foot something, tall and slim, absolutely gorgeous,

And a smile that warmed the entire pharmacy in which we were in.

So, the usual opener,

"So, what do you do?"

"I'm a baseball coach over at Sandlot of young kids 12-16."

A young man with a passion!

"I love baseball. I played pro at college in California,"

Born in Oregon, married a beautiful Quebecoise, lives and coaches in Montreal.

"I pass on my passion for the game to the young boys and girls whom I coach."

Double love. Double passion!

How lucky can a young man be!
