Thursday Night Tennis Lights

A friend and I played tennis last night (I got beat, again) in the
cold and under the lights at the local courts adjacent to the
community recreation center.

Due to the recent time change, it starts to get dark at what seems to
be 4:30 p.m. and by the time any normal people get out of work, it is
really dark. Being able to drive up the street and play on one of
four lit tennis courts, with tight nets, is quite nice. I dressed for
the cold, but once I started chasing all of his shots (most of which
I couldn't return) it warmed up quite nice. Not at all a bad place/
time to play.

Back in the USA

I am finally home. After a few days in Kuwait, a few hours in Hungary, we landed in NJ. The week at Fort Dix wasn't too bad as I visited Philadelphia, Atlantic City, and New York City. I saw Les Miserables for the first time on Broadway and ate some authentic NY pizza.  I even learned a little about Texas Hold 'Em in Atlantic City. The homecoming in Utah was great and the week I was able to spend with my family was priceless.
 
Yesterday, Katie took me to Orlando. Nice place.
