Tonya strikes Gold and Silver, Terry digs for Bronze.

We entered the pool events of the Yuma city wide Senior Games last week. I guess we found out who the real pool shooter is. Tonya won a silver medal in the singles event and a gold medal in the doubles event while I settled for a bronze in both singles and doubles (that means I lost to the first loser and will be uttering the loser's mantra "There's always next year"). The singles event is held at our park's pool room since it is the biggest and nicest in town.

Tonya and the Gold Medalist.

My Bronze medal pictures from singles and doubles. My partner Al is on my right, in his 80's but still plays pretty sporty.

Other than the tournament we have been to a western dinner show, a park produced play, chicken dinner, fish dinner, and USA/Canada day (an excuse to drink and dance at 1:00 in the afternoon), all in the park's ballroom. All of these events are BYOB and most involve music and dancing.

So it goes this time of year here, hard to keep up, but we do the best we can. Will have a couple more months at this pace before things slow down in April.
