ANOTHER 1ST!!!

Who would have thought, the way this tournament began! My partner, Bill, called at 7AM Wed. to tell me he had hurt his back and couldn't play today. He tried and tried to find a sub but couldn't. He called again at 7:30AM and said he had taken a shower and was able to dry his feet, so he was going to play. It was very evident when we met at the tournament that morning that he was in considerable pain, but he insisted on playing. Through his pain and discomfort he carried me to victories in the first two games. We had lunch and the next two games in the afternoon I played much, much better and we won another two games. The next morning his back was feeling better and I was 'hot' so we won the semis game and the finals game!! We were thrilled to have our second 1st Main of the season! I really enjoy playing with Bill - he seems to bring out the best in me, and we have a really good time. God Bless & Happy Shuffling!!
