HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR BEAUTIFUL GIRLS...

YOU WILL ALWAYS BE OUR BABIES..

So we settled into our routine for the winter, mostly shuffleboard..

These are our shuffleboard courts. We have 16 boards so 64 people can play at one time. They don't look this nice when we arrive. They have a lot of dry dirt on them. We got back early so David went up and hosed them all off. That takes several hours. Once some of the guys arrived they stripped of the wax and put new wax on them. Usually 2 coats. Then they buff them. When we play we put dry wax on them. This is a mixture of corn meal and little plastic beads. The birds like to hang around in case some of the corn meal doesn't get swept up.

David is working on winning a dime for this game. We play 2 games in the morning and the most you can lose is 20 cents. Each game usually takes about 45 minutes. There are two other players at the other end of the board.

John and Al are our two oldest players. No one likes to play them cause they are too Good. Combined age is 173 years!! See what shuffleboard can do for you..

So the large yellow piece of fruit came from a ladies tree here in our park. No it is not a grapefruit.. It is a lemon. It is the biggest lemon I've ever seen.
