Match of the Day: Don v Barry. You know what they say: Don't bring a pointer to a shootin' match.
Another typical day at Depot park.
I don't think you should go around talking trash about people because I think that's how you get your hat handed to you. —LL Cool J
If you watch dogs play, they run and they fight, but they don't fight to hurt each other. They just play. And that's been me my entire life. —Daniel Bryan
Obviously those dogs don't play petanque. At least not in our park.
There was a little girl
who had a little curl.

When I'm driving down Arnold on my way to the park, I am going two directions at once,
I am moving forward towards the courts, where with any luck, I will toss a few boules well enough to justify the gas I burn getting there.
Of course nothing is guaranteed, but for the few moments that I am standing in the circle, there exists the possibility that I will take the point.
I mean, what could go wrong?
I am also moving away, from appointments, chores, daily expectations I often do not measure up to and disappointments that I carry.
The time I spend at the park is an island in my life. I know that. If nothing else, I have to return to reality to walk the dog.
But the couple of hours that I manage to steal away for are a prize in the Cracker Jack box that is my existence.
But the Cracker Jacks themselves are not too bad either.

You win a few, you lose a few. Some get rained out. But you got to dress for all of them. —Satchel Paige
As always, if you'd like to be free, free at last! from this drivel, send me a cease and desist note and your wish will be granted.
It's just that easy. And how many things in life are that easy with the assurance of a positive out come.
A chicken in every pot. Shooting fish in a barrel. Easy peasy. Nothing to it. A walk in the park. It's not rocket science.
