Pickleball Workshop - Sun City Center

Rich and I were scheduled to do a pickleball skills clinic with the Sun City Center Pickleball Club on Monday. The clinic was to begin at 9am. If you've been following the weather here in Florida, then you know that we are experiencing some exceptionally cold days. When we awoke on Monday morning it was in the 30's with winds blustering from 18-20 mpr, making it "feel like" about 27 degrees!!!! We assumed the weather was the same over in Sun City Center - but not knowing we began to dress in several layers...........It was just a few minutes after seven when the phone rang, and it was Mike Perkins, the Pickleball Club President. They were experiencing the same type of weather, but the forecast was also for some possible light rain..................so we rescheduled for Wednesday afternoon. WHEW!!! We were SOOOOOO Glad - because unless it was absolutely critical - no one was stepping outside their rigs!

How quickly the weather can change down here!!! Above are some pictures taken on Wednesday afternoon. It was an absolutely beautiful afternoon and we had a great time. We had done a similar clinic about this time last year - and we were thrilled when Mike called to invite us back again this year.

Everyone posed for the "group picture". That's Mike Perkins on the far left.......and Rich is there in the back row!!!
