Well as usual I am running way behind on my blog. Sept 18 and 19th we played in a pickleball tournament in Hot Springs Village, AR. We got there on a Wednesday and played in the village. There are a lot of people that play and we got some good games in. Thursday we went into Hot Springs and explored the town and went out to where we used to live. One of our sons best friends is a Meth. minister and is now minister of the church where we used to go. We did not get to go to Sunday service, but got to visit with them and their family. Lots of great memories.
The tournament director put me with this lady, Mary Jane from Monticello, AR and we won gold in doubles in our age group.
John met Mike in Baton Rouge and they teamed up and won bronze .....
John and I won silver in the mixed doubles and the lady and her pardner that beat us ..... she beat me in singles. There is a joke in horse racing that goes like this. Someone asks how you ran and you say 3rd and they say how many horses in the race ?(you hope they don't ask that), then you have to say 3. That was kind of like me, there were 3 entered, but one lady dropped out. So thinking postive I came in 2nd (in a 2 horse race). Good times we had. Oh yes the ladies of some club in HS Village baked cakes and cookies and had sandwiches for all the players FREE!
