Well I’m back and whoa!! Versailles is one strange and interesting place, and Poultry Days a fine fair and Ultimate tournament. More on those topics to follow, hopefully in the next day or two.
Fow now, though, I’ve got to unpack and whatnot and take a shower — then try to catch up on some badly needed sleep.
How was your weekend?
Update: I just found out old-time friend/ex-coworker Sudie became a father! To a little baby girl! Wahoo, congrats Sudie and Durga. More on that as info trickles in. 🙂

Tonight, Cam and Melissa loaned me their tent for the weekend. But who can wait for that? 🙂



All the pieces are there — including bonus hay from 3 years ago 😀 Looks like it’s gonna fit in my backpack and then some. Rock on!

So last night I headed up to St. Pete with Eric J to check out the Ultimate Frisbee league which is starting up there. It’s a 45 minute drive up the I-75; this week and next is a pickup game and registration. Eric and I both signed up. We ended up playing 6-on-6 and was largely new players, with a couple old-timers thrown in for good measure. The women’s team practice was going on right beside us; watching it was impressive. They did warm up stretches, sprints, jumping drills, ran around the field a couple times, played a game, and then did a whole series of cooldown stretches and other exercises. That’s something my team in Sarasota should do… would seriously help reduce sore/stiff muscles the next day, I think.
The skies were beautiful last night.

Lightning all around us, but it never actually rained

La Fin Du Monde, literally “The End of the World”. From Quebec, it was the beer to drink at Fortunatos. 9% alc. I had one.

L to R: Ilsa, Big E (Eric), Big City (Brian), Sam. I’m going to Poultry Days with City and Sam.

Eric and Brad.

Our venue of choice. Featuring live music and free pizza 🙂
