This was the first time that our pickleball group has played on the weekend. There were 9 players......Bob T., Steve, Ron, Sharon, Lynne S., Lee, Hugh, Ken and I. The morning started out cool but warmed up quickly. We were all shedding jackets not long after we started playing.
Ken and I got to the courts early this morning and marked off a pickleball court on one side of the tennis net to see if we could turn one tennis court into 2 pickleball courts when we need 3 courts. This way we could also go to 4 courts as we have 2 tennis courts. It looks like it will work pretty well. We took the chairs and strung a rope across where the net would be and then Ken, Bob and I tried playing on the court. The tennis net will catch the balls behind the players on one side of the pickleball court and the fence will catch the ones on the other side.
Ron and Sharon won't be around for a couple of weeks as they will be on vacation in Germany. We will miss them but hope they have a great trip. Of course our pickleball group will be a little smaller while they are gone.
Remember that we are always on the look out for prospective picklers.
Hope to play on Tuesday.
C U on D Courts.......Lynn

Pickleball @ Timmons Park Friday 10-3-08
We had a big group for pickleball today. Lynne S. brought her daughter and son-in-law and we had a new player to come and try pickleball. Peter also showed up after a long absence.
In all we had 12 players today......Bob T., Steve, Ralph, Ron, Sharon, Lynne S., daughter Lee, son-in-law Hugh, Peter, Joanie, Ken and I. At 8:30 this morning it was right chilly. First Bob T., Ken and I started playing canadian doubles until Steve and Ralph arrived.
Joan was a new player today. She picked up the game really well. She said that she really liked the game and we are looking forward to her coming back to play with us.
It was a beautiful fall day. After the sun came out bright it really warmed up but not too much.
We played until after 12:00 and then headed home for lunch.
Remember we're always in the market for potential picklers.
We plan to play on Sunday morning at 9:00
Hope to C U on D courts......Lynn
