I had a board meeting and couldn’t get to Scotts Valley until 8 p.m. Late. But any playing is better than nothing. I only got three games in. All were with Bruce and Janet with an assortment of players to fill out the four.

Bruce and I teamed up for a couple of hysterical games where we both played left handed. Bruce did surprisingly well, though he mentioned he’s been playing ping pong left handed against his wife Janet—otherwise he’d destroy her since he’s been playing ping pong since he was a kid. It translates well to pickleball, plus Bruce is a natural coordinated athlete. Bruce and I lost both games but did better in the second.

The last game was Olga and me against Janet and Bruce, with he and I still both playing left handed. Olga was serving very well and playing very well overall. She’s gotten much better. Olga carried our side to a win, though I did serve some really strong left handed serves that I would have been proud to have served right handed. That’s a first.

Folks were all done about 8:45.

Forum Project

I’ve decided to let my new forum sit. My wife and I will be gone for a week leaving our house and dog in care of a young woman. When we get back, I can see about getting the forum going.
