We had a nice turnout on a VERY hot July afternoon at Miller Park. We were pleasantly surprised to welcome Fred back to the group. He's about halfway through a six week recuperation period from surgery, so we didn't expect to see him quite so soon. Not only did he and Faye make an appearance, but he really looked good and seems to be well on his way to complete recovery. Welcome back, Fred!
One other surprise caught most of us off guard as well: Tom Cearley's TWIN brother showed up unexpectedly on his way to Virginia. We didn't even realize Tom had a twin! He visited for a while and even played a game with us (substituting for Shirley who got caught up in an extended phone call). Come back anytime, Tim.
And, finally, a friend of Shirley's from her workplace in High Point showed up with her husband to try our game for the first time. LuAnn and Mike both seemed to catch on quickly and enjoyed meeting our group. Hope to see you again soon, guys!
Along with those mentioned above and Shirley and myself, we were happy to have Augustin, Susanne, and Marc from Hickory; Ronnie Rierson from Clemmons; Bob M. from W-S, Tom and Carol from Lincolnton, and Joe from the Miller Park neighborhood.
The two umbrellas that Shirley and I had the foresight to bring made the temperatures (barely!) tolerable and we had some good games despite it being mid-July in North Carolina.
