Super Bowl Sunday

Super Bowl Sunday started out great. We were up very early and on the road early for a day (or half day) trip to The Villages to meet with Coach Mo and Jeanne. There were better than a half dozen of our pickleball friends who knew we were going and asked us to pick up Coach Mo's 21 Clinics DVD, and a few others that said " while you're there, can you pick me up a Predator Paddle?" The Predator is probably the most popular here - so much so, that they were "SOLD OUT! A new supply should be in soon.
We arrived early at Mo and Jeanne's (can you believe I did not bring my camera???) where we enjoyed a hot cup of Hazelnut coffee before bundling up for the courts. Rich and Mo headed for Pimlico and Jeanne and I went to Churchill St for pickleball. It's a daily ritual for Mo to meet up with his pickleball buddies at Dunkin Donuts each morning after pickleball so we kept to the tradition. One of the guys brought a tin of cookies from home and we sat out side talking, laughing and playing a little trivia.
About 12:30 the four of us headed to the Golden Corral where we enjoyed a deliciously huge buffet lunch. Needless to say - that would be our meal for the day. We had been invited to accompany them to the Super Bowl party that evening and to spend the night but decided we would head back to the campsite. TT does not like it when you leave your RV unattended for the night! It was great to see the two of them again, and if not before we will meet up with them again in June.
A quick stop at WalMart to gas up the truck and to pick up some Silicone spay lubricant and we were back at TT. The group was already out on the pickleball courts playing so we stopped there first and played three or four games. Dean and Rene were there, so we gave them thier videos and Renee warned us to be prepared in the morning - as he would be viewing the video today!!
After all the driving and pickleball, we were exhauseted when we got back. So we just relaxed and watched a movie in the afternoon. It would be an early night for Rich because I hoped to watch the Colts win the SuperBowl!!!
Denny sent us this picture of the family preparing to watch the game out in Iowa...... Dalton and Chauna all decked out in their football attire. As you all know by now, the evening just went down hill from there. It turned out to be an early night for me too. I didn't see the final score until this morning.
