206th st. Reunion & Paddleball

So last week we had a 206th st reunion up in Congers, it was a blast, saw a few friends that i haven't seen in, jeez, 25 years. ran into some friends i see every now and then. it was definitely like old home week with less hair, especially me and maybe  a lb or 2 more.  Somehow i let my self get talked into playing paddleball on a future weekend. You know when you are having fun you agree to most everything. The problem was i haven't played since i was like 17 yrs old.

Well that weekend was today. Met Anna, my neighbor, Laura Leigh, one of those i haven't seen in 25 yrs, and some dude i didn't know. All i envisioned was missing the ball, falling on my face, getting hurt, straining body parts i don't use or know that i even have.

you know what, it was fun. After the first game i  slowly got back to into playing shape, by the fourth game i was that 17 yr old kid, lots of hair, skinny, etc..  ok i really wasn't feeling that young but i definitely could have played 5 or 6 more games.

off to Dicks Sporting Goods to get a paddle and some balls.  no comments on that last line please...
