Roquet Court Update


Will the real Tom Sawyer please stand up?
First there was Terry's idea to redo the court...
Then there was John's idea to rototill it...
Then there was Terry's idea to add top soil...
Then there was John's idea to roll it...
Then they both had the idea to get Fred to water it...
Then there was Terry's idea to aerate it...
Then there was John's idea get a reel mower...
Then there was Terry's idea to add more "stuff"...
It seems like there's no end...

(Frankly folks, the court still offers as many bumps and dips as it ever did. And, just like that fence of Tom Sawyer's, I suspect it will always need work. Either Terry will be trying to convince John or John will be trying to convince Terry that it ain't work... After all, does a boy get a chance to tend a roquet court every day? Where's Fred in all this? Somehow, I suspect Fred did a little reading of Mark Twain over the winter.)

They must not have had all the rain we did. I'd turn it into a swimming pool.
