Days sans Petanque: I hope we've seen the last of them.

OUR COURTS ARE "SOMEWHAT" OPEN, WITH THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT PROVISIONS, HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW BELOW.  PLEASE READ THIS PARTICULAR PARAGRAPH (AND THE FULL HEALTH ORDER) CAREFULLY.

PLEASE DO NOT ABUSE THESE PROVISIONS AND POSSIBLY JEOPARDIZE OUR FULL ACCESS TO OUR COURTS!  THE CITY IS VERY AWARE OF OUR DESIRE TO UTILIZE THE COURTS, AND THIS IS THEIR CURRENT STAND--HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW BELOW.  FOR NOW, WE DO NOT HAVE FULL ACCESS, AND WE APPRECIATE YOUR FULL COOPERATION!

`Consistent with the Governor's Guidance on outdoor recreation (https://covid19.ca.gov/stay-home-except-for-essential-needs/#outdoor), the use of shared facilities for some recreational activities outside of residences, including, but not limited to, tennis, bocce and pickle ball courts, water sports, sports fields, climbing walls, shooting and archery ranges, disc golf, basketball courts, and boat launches, shall be closed unless, on a Park by Park basis, the Park owner determines that the particular facility can safely be operated consistent with social distancing and hygiene requirements of Order No. C19-09 and this Order. If any such facilities are open, they may only be used by individuals alone or in a group comprised solely of individuals from the same household.

Looks like my work here is done.

So let's raise our glass to the accident season,
To the river beneath us where we sink our souls,
To the bruises and secrets, to the ghosts in the ceiling,
One more drink for the watery road.
