All about tennis now!

It's BNP Parabas time! (3-02 to 3-16)
Opening night was the "McEnroe Challenge"
with John McEnroe playing Jim Courier.
Can you guess who this is serving?
 
Once the sun went down...it was a little chilly in the stadium.
Allan always comes prepared. 
But we stayed until the bitter cold end.
 
Ellen and me on our first day at work!
We're pretty bright this year, don't you think?
 
And enjoying Happy Hour at the house afterwards.
She just found out it was snowing back in W.Va.
I may make a desert rat out of her yet.
 
More to come...
 
 

More get togethers!

With the Canadians..
Another dinner party at Leona & Gordie's...(2-26)
Allan in his American flag jacket
(had to remind everyone that we were American's.)
Our usual group...Carolyn, hiking buddy; and Leona, tennis buddy.
 
Appetizers on the patio...no snow here!
 
Look at those smiles...maybe it was the wine!
 
Then we started dancing...
Leona, me and Beate.
Oh...such fun we have!
 
With our neighbors...(3-2) at our house...
to welcome the Oregonians back.
Bob, Karen and Alan & Sally
 
 
Sally with Mike (an Oregonian)
others were in the house.
Lots of food and the best desserts ever by Sally...
Boston cream pie and cheesecake.  Yum, yum.
 
Couldn't miss Sunday Sounds at the Palm Desert Library...
the Palm Springs Gay Men's Chorale.
