This great story describes the trek of the Poltz family as they moved from Nova Scotia to Pasadena. It pays homage to some of the great play-by-play announcers in sports. We offer it here to pay tribute to the great Ernie Harwell, who passed away May 5, 2010. He broadcast Brooklyn Dodgers games from 1948 - 1960, and then switched over to the Detroit Tigers. For the next 42 years, Ernie called the Tiger games, and for people who lived arond the Great Lakes, he was the "voice of summer."
Enjoy this song - this wonderful story by Steve Poltz.
