Its Friday..

Weather: gonna be some showers later today..

Sooo I went up to the upper courts 5/22 and.. low and behold, no one there. I hung out, cleaned my racquet bag, listened to Mp3s and contemplated. Finally Dave and his son showed up and we played some doubles.. ok you can call it what you want but there was 4 players on the court and from Dave “those are REAL Players! On the other side of the court as he admonishes himself after a less than stellar play.

But the real story is WOW those courts are bad, simply bad. I think there are smoother landing strips than that of those courts. In fact I’m sure Pilot Dean will swear to it in his own ways. Another thing, see those cracks? I’m betting that those cracks are one of the few man made items that can actually be viewed from outer space with the naked eye. Fact is, we all wonder where the players have gone.. makes you wonder huh?

I don’t know if every one went to Shoreline today or not but as much as I think these upper courts pale in comparison, it is a much more convenient place for those coming from the south. It will be interesting to see just how many will make that trip up North, I know I’m not looking forward to it.

Just a side thought, would it be to much to get some of that ready crete and just plaster the cracks in the court? I don’t know maybe one of you who know more about that kind of stuff will be kind enough to guesstimate if it can be done and how much we would need.

WEB CAM

I was thinking and let me know what you all think, do you all think a web cam for the court would be a good idea? I was thinking that it might be a good deterent against vandalism. Skateboarders are now using the courts to skate around in while they wait for their turn in the skate rink. I just fear that the surface would get scratched and damaged. Also, it would be nice to have one to check court conditions as far as the weather is concerned. No need anymore to come out only to find big puddles and courts unplayable due to rain and yikes, snow. I think a Web cam would be a nice addition.

Its FRIDAY!! Wooohooo…OH wait a sec, its always Friday, nevermind..

OK guys, where ya playin today, maybe leave a place and time on the comments so people will know.
