Hickory indoors at night

It was the eve before Danny's birthday!

Cherri Sutphin from Winston-Salem joined Marc, Danny, Sue, Shirley, and me for Tuesday evening play in Hickory. It was Cherri's first time to play there, and, as it turned out, Juan wasn't able to be there this week, so the triples teams were made even.

Or, at least we thought they were even--the girls beat the guys 2 out of 3!

~~Stole~~ Borrowed these pics from Bo Edwards' FACEBOOK posts posted around 7:15 AM on Tuesday morning. I'm thinking PM on Monday?

I'd recognize that style anywhere!

Carolina Petanque was well represented at Atlanta Petanque League's September 26th Fall Boules Days tournament. Kirk Edwards and Uijin Park (Bo's brother) finished 3rd overall for our best showing of the day.

Honor Woodard teamed with friend-of-Carolina Al Davison to win the Consolation "B" bracket by defeating the friends-of-Carolina Florida team of Lori Beth and Larry Creasy.

Carolina had two other teams competing: Mother-son team Bo Edwards and Parker; along with Dick and Dawn Pollard from Asheville.

Congratulations to all who participated.

Champions for the day were "Ziggy" Kessouagni from Chicago and Songmi Keating (FPUSA National Sport Director) from Amelia Island, FL.
