Winter doesn't scare the Michigan Petanque Club

This Sunday's meet had a nice turn-out. Present were members: Michel, Camille, Thierry, Dan, Marcel, Cyrille, Joe, Romain, and Jeff. Four games were played, and since there was still plenty of light, a final fifth match was played. And then as one of the matches was still going on, Dan, Cyrille, and Jeff played a 3-Way every player for themself match. An interesting variation on the game, though still leaving me in last place.

Michel, Jeannette and Camille are off for Florida, to bask in the warmth of 85 degree days, playing Petanque along oceanside pistes, three and four times a week.

While the rest of us scramble for lock de-icers, windshield scrapers, snow shovels, and perhaps a Deus Ex Machina solution for winter-time Petanque... Stay tuned...
