Wednesday afternoon/evening

Shannon in the circle

Our cat, "Petanque," doesn't seem to be disturbed by our play

After our morning session in Winston-Salem, we made the drive back towards Lexington, stopping along the way at "Nick's" in Welcome, NC, to get our by-now-nearly-weekly famous pork chop sandwich (with chili, mustard, onions, and white or red slaw).  Of course their other sandwiches are also great-- burgers, hot dogs, etc.-- for those who prefer.

Khalid Mesbah had to work until around 3:15 PM in Charlotte, but then came over to Lexington for our afternoon/evening session.  He stayed and played until around 7:30 PM before starting back home to Charlotte to join his family for their traditional post-sundown meal in observance of Ramadan.
