I stopped by the Royal Oak terrain again yesterday afternoon to check out the condition of the playing surface, and also in the hope that there would be others there playing pétanque. For the most part, I think the terrain is ready to go. It's a lot firmer than my last visit a couple of weeks back, and my rolling shots rolled a lot further instead of digging in. The only exception was the northeast quadrant, which was improved but still seemed a little soft in spots.
As for my hope that other people would be there... well, unfortunately, I was disappointed. I'm hoping that'll change this Sunday.

I'm sure that there will be plenty of folks there this weekend. I'll try to get the word out via e-mail.

Great, we'll see if that works. I'm crossing my fingers that it won't rain as predicted.
