Meet Maestro - the newest member of Detroit Petanque Club
Kelvin just joined us today, but his pointing looks like he's been playing for 10 years! That's why we call him Maestro (which was good that he was on my triplette's team today). Kelvin threw a boule so close, it hopped over the cochon, landing on the other side and staying (biberon).
It was Me (Jeff); Maestro; and Gene against Hal; Sharon; and Tony. The score was even at 8/8, then the tables turned with the oppositon gaining, until it was 11/10 (us) - then the final boules were thrown, (and so well that I didn't even need to throw mine!) - 13/10. We look forward to seeing him at our training field at the Renaissance Center, and our tournament play (against Michigan Petanque Club) on our stomping grounds (Campus Martius Park).
