Clubhouse Gang CHAMPIONS

At last, proper recognition for a remarkable achievement - a Wheaties cover! We are the champions!


Ron O. won two more games of bocce today. Charlie now owes him so much money, Ron is going to garner his Social Security check. The guys wouldn't even let Sue on the court today. The last time she was allowed to play, she cleaned their clocks.

Both Charlie and Gunther will be going back north later this week. Have a safe trip home, guys. See everyone else next week!

First Spring Gang Meet - 2016

Goals met! Puzzle completed and Ron Ron reduced to Ron! (Ron had a good day, Ron didn't even compete. Huh?) The Grumpy Old Marine was a two-time loser. He had his excuse at the ready, sinuses acting up. Sue gave the guys a break and didn't even show.


Ron and Gunther trash talking at match end

The puzzle gang finished another puzzle. You can share their unbridled excitement in the following video clip. They may even appear on a Wheaties box cover soon!





The Finished Puzzle

Stay out of trouble, everybody. See you next week.

Da Doo Ron Ron

Ron and Ron were undefeated in bocce. Don't know who let those two play together but it has to stop. It is just too confusing - Ron, it's your up. No, Ron, not you, Ron! That and they are just too good.

And Charlie's back! He admitted he checked into the hospital last week just so he wouldn't have to face Sue-Sue again. Bruce chose to go to the dentist rather than face her. All was well, however, as Sue-Sue didn't play today. She worked her magic at the jigsaw table.

The puzzle is progressing nicely. When no one was looking, they brought in Marsha, a ringer. Jean was back in action too.

The goodie table was filled with donut thingies, brownie bits and gourmet trail mix (loaded with Combos). Best of all, there was not a raisin in sight. Life is good!

See you all next week! Maybe we will finish the puzzle and knock Ron Ron off the top of the leader board - two solid goals.

Bingo anyone?

Another fun Monday!  There were so many gang members on the bocce ball lawn, we had to take turns. Bruce and Bill were the big winners. Congrats! Now if we can just get a couple of bocce courts built, we can start a league or even challenge Martinique or The Island to a match. The bocce Olympics? Maybe.


With the weather warming up, Lyona is talking about resuming the Water Aerobics group after Spring Break. Jack floated the idea for a Family Bingo night each month. The HOA board is encouraging even more activities at the clubhouse to build community for all residents. Any ideas?


The goodie table was particularly tasty. Ruthye brought her special banana bread and Sue brought a raisin-free, iced marble cake. Flavia brought chocolate chip cookies.

See everyone next Monday!
