OK, I had to google up Bocce ball to see how it's played and with what. What in the world kind of surface would you play it on? Looks like it needs to be on a carpet laid on a flat surface. Anyway, just wanted to make sure it wasn't played like polo with croquet mallets and four people in a 5' box swinging at the ball. I would have drug up my chair and beer to watch that. But after I saw it played on youtube, I think I'll drink whiskey and just heckle the players. Do you wear different colored jerseys so we can tell the teams apart? I've got a set of boards and corn bags to play another game. I won't mention the name of the game here because I know who I'm dealing with. I enjoy playing games that allow me to hold my drink and not spill it while playing.

Baker we don't play on an official court nor play by the official rules. We (up to 4 players) play on the lawn. It is a lot of fun and you would be missing out if you didn't try it.

After attending a lot of rallies in the past 10-12 years and participating in lots of games from cards to golf ball tossing to horse shoes and dominoes... I don't think any were played by OFFICIAL RULES. Every body has their own rules, be it because of area of state or state of mind. Regardless,,, we always have fun.
And like baker said... "I enjoy playing games that allow me to hold my drink and not spill it while playing."

You guys sound like some of my old golf partners.lol And hey, I'll try anything once. Now I don't know whether I'm looking forward to Bocce ball or the big breakfast. Working nights and close to retirement is rough but I'm really looking forward to this rally so I can take the LG out again. See everyone there and have a great day.

Baker you have both to look forward to. A good big breakfast, with potatoes of course, and then bocce ball.
Just a short explanation on our situation. Three years ago our granddaughter was born 3 months premature and 2 pounds. Now she is healthy happy normal 3 year old. Gina is now expecting again and having similar problems and restricted to bed rest hoping to delay birth as long as possible, due in May. We are headed home so Pat can move in with them and help out.
We were really looking forward to this rally because we had made so many new friends from the Amana rallies.
Yes Bernie and Dave I was looking to play that great new game you taught me. I know all you guys will have a fantastic time. Hopefully we can meet again down the road.

No explanation needed. Things come up in life that take priority. This, my friend, is one of them. I have 3 and 4yr old granddaughters by my 2nd daughter. I know exactly where my wife would be in your shoes. I know everything will be fine with the pregnancy but it's better to err on the side of caution. Congrats on the coming of your new Grandchild and our prayers are with them both.
Let's look at this again. Bocce ball or being there in Gina's time of need? Yep, you've made the right decision. Hope to see you down the road and you can show us pics of the new one.
Have a great day.

Speaking of priorities, are we sure someone has the fried potatoes under control? A big biscuit broke in half, each with a big sausage patty on top and covered in gravy with bacon on the side, I can feel my arteries clogging already.

I have attached the Agenda to the first post and I have included it here too. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Fried potatoes, yep. Under control, no guaranty.
We will be there tomorrow afternoon.
Peace

No Guarantee! Don't let me down Dave. I have a fever and the only cure is fried potatoes. I guess we'll figure out where this Breakfast Extravaganza is going to be held Thursday evening. If it's going to be at Andy's site, I would rather cook all of this meat there. I'll take my Road trip grill and my Coleman stove with a cast iron skillet. Seems like a good place to cook up those taters also. Be easier to clean up afterwards. Just dump all of the grease out under Andy's BC and throw all of the greasy paper towels out on the ground. I try to keep the 'Lil Guy's site clean.
Speaking of that, I washed the LG today and went over it with 303. My old arse is dragging. I bought the little giant ladder (big one) to be able to reach the top. I didn't know the ladder weighs more than my rig. If and when we move up to the full size models I'll pay someone to do it for me. Debbie wasn't much help but she did keep my energy level high with all of the sniveling.
Can't get a grip on the weather there. Seems like rain Thursday ad then a 10% Friday. We may try to come up Wednesday evening but Thursday early for sure. We don't want to make a grand entrance since our rig is always the smallest one at these events. See everyone there and have a great day.
