Wednesday Tennis

The parking lot was CROWDED tonight for the tennis and Chili.   MM MM Good.   I hear the Chili was good, but it was GONE by the time I was done with my match... A big 3 setter.   After losing the first set 1-6, our coach (CeCe) took us aside and gave us our marching orders.   She was right... a little strategy change and the tide turned.  I would tell you what she told us, but we need it tomorrow night!

Also, a big shout out to Big and Little Kuipers.   That just goes to show what 6 days a week of lessons, an amazing drive and focus, and the support of your parents can do. Congrats to both of the Kuipers Dem in their comeback to beat Smashburn and Kupfer.  Maybe a little more congrats to the smaller of the two Kuipers men.  

I did get to watch a little of my lovely wife's match as well.  She and her lovely partner Carol Lockwood matched beautifully in their pink skirts and and white tops.   Maybe Dieter and I should match... Maybe not :)   These ladies left their hearts out there, but it was Aaronstein and Kye with the big win.  Congrats ladies.  

To all the other matches that I missed, Sorry, but Michael Armendariz covered them all.   He's so good at this. Check out his play by play every day on the blog... http://www.heinekenstcroixopen.blogspot.com/ every day for Michael's handiwork.

Now on to the future:

1)  Friday night is the semi finals and a WINE TASTING.... Free to Members.  15 bucks for guests.   I wish I had more details, but what else do you need to know.  Friday, fun, wine, friends, etc., tennis, etc. etc.   Come on Out.

2)  Saturday at 4PM is the Doubles Finals of the Open and the last matches, BUT the fun doesn't stop there.  Can you say cookout and awards ceremony????  Wait, Wait there's more.   At 5:30ish, my FAVORITE STX band the "Moments" are going to be playing.  The lovely "Mo" Hart will be belting out the oldies and the newer stuff.   It's really a great mix.   Eli loves their music. If you haven't seen them, they are really good.   Come out for the tennis.   Stay for the burgers and music!  

Ciao
