Hail to the Chief!

I have officially became President of the park's 96 member Billiard Club. I became a member board of directors for the club this year and was elected to the office by the board at yesterday's meeting. A brilliant campaign promising free health care for all Billiard Club members, which I said I would get the Tennis Club to pay for, and the fact that I was unopposed, led to a unanimous vote. When I was approached last week about seeking the office I asked the present president what the duties entailed. She said she would only tell me after I was elected. Either she was afraid I wouldn't accept or I will be finding out what goes on in "Area 51" and get the nuke codes pretty soon. It also means we will be coming back for the next few years since the board membership is a three year term and I suspect officers keep their position unless they absolutely refuse to continue.

Otherwise, since the last post, we have been busy with park activities and taking care of some home projects. We have also made several trips to Mexico getting our annual dental work done, we should be done with that. Tonya has enrolled in the local community college, taking the pool class that is taught by one of guys I compete against (and usually get beat by)at the local weekly tournaments. Have yet to get going on dance lessons and poker playing.

We have heard about all the cold weather occurring across the country in the last couple of weeks. In case you were worrying about us, our high's have been hovering around 70 degrees, and of course the sun shines every day here.
