Pickleball Tuesday 5-12-09

We had everything going for us today. Bright skies with puffy, white clouds, low 70s, minimal wind and a large crew of hard-hitting, deadly accurate, speedy and sometimes joyously loud P'ballers.
Present and accounted for: Carol, Johnny, 3 Bobs (Bob T, Bob H and Bob S) John, Anne, Joanie, Jan, Ralph, Sharon and this scribe.
Bob T's wife and granddaughter were in attendance as well. They took advantage of the playground equipment and watched some of our masterful games.
We played many matches. Some turned into lengthy battles with the balls coming up the worst losers. Two were destroyed (balls, that is). They will go into the recycle bin after a short, but touching memorial service.
"Bob" created some minor distractions - the 3 of them. Every time someone remarked "nice shot, Bob" - all three would acknowledge the compliment and Bob H would take a bow, even if he was on a break.
It was a beautiful day all around and it was great to have such a turnout.
The next match will be scheduled for Thursday, May 14th @ 9:30AM. Hope to see another good turnout.
Ron & Sharon
