Saturday - July 29, 2006

The heat wave was over. The morning was gray and slightly cool when 3 of the regular players (Zack, Rudy & Larry) and 5 guest players (Donna, Tera, Bill, Dave & Harry) assembled for the Saturday morning round robin. The teams were as follows:

Tera and Dave
Donna and Rudy
Zack and Larry
Bill and Harry

As expected Tera and Dave won all of their matches and took first. The results were as follows:

1st Round

Tera/Dave
over Donna/Rudy 6-4
Zack/Larry over Bill/Harry 6-0

2nd Round

Tera/Dave over Zack/Larry 6-2
Donna/Rudy over Zack/Larry 6-4

3rd Round

Tera/Dave
over Bill/Harry 6-1
Donna/Rudy over Zack/Larry 6-4

The refreshments this week were cheese & crackers (Dave), peanuts in the shell (Donna), chips and salsa (Larry) and beer and coke (Bill, Rudy & Zack). Most of the people stayed and enjoyed the comeradrie and refreshments.

During the refreshments Carole and her cute little granddaughter with her painted finger and toe nails came to submit tomatoes for the first weighing of the season for the 2006 Tomato Growing contest. Carole brought individual husband and wife entries for the contest. Gayten's (husband) entry nosed out Carole's entry by weighing 0.3 ounce more. Allegations were heard that Gayten did not give her plant as much fish emulsion to her plant as he did for his plant. The granddaugter remained neutral on this issue as she showed off her painted toe nails. Details of the weighing can be found at the Tomato Blog.

George will be on a temporary hiatus from the Saturday tennis round robin for a while. Bill will be filling in for him during his haitus.

The courts 1 - 4 will be resurfaced next week. Onome will meet with the contractor on Monday to learn how long Courts 1 - 4 will be closed for resurfacing and curing.

The ratings after today's play are as follows:

Rudy - 5.8
George - 5.1
Larry - 4
Zack - 3.9
Bill - 3.3

Bob F. - 3.5
Cyp - 3.7
Richard C. - 4.3
Louise - 5
Carmel - 5.2
Harry - 3.3
Ingrid - 5.2
Lee - 2.7
Richard S. - 3.7
Terri - 3.7
Rich T. - 4.3
Donna - 4.5
Cathy - 3
Onome - 2
John - 6
Dave - 6
Tera - 6

We'll be back next week, I think.

I think Larry's hearing was impaired by Lily's toenail display, because what I really said was: " Gayton was continually interrupted by me while he was feeding the plants due to my excessive demands and probably inadvertently fed 'some' plants more than others."
