Chuck reported for duty as a judge at our community's charity croquet tournament. It was the second year for the event, and the judges were all local celebrities of one type or another. Some were elected representatives in state or local offices.
I stopped by and took a few photos.
Derek Kilmer, a state senator, and Terry Lee. Lee used to represent our district on the county council. They were having a great time. |
The angels came to play dirty. |
The judges were all dressed in striped ref shirts and nice tan visors, and they all carried clip boards. An unscrupulous lot, they all were easily bribed with croquet money. Missed a shot, no problem. Give the judge a $5 croquet bill and all is OK.
All of the money went to a local Communities in Schools program this year.
The teams came dressed in all manner of costumes, and these were some of my favorites.
This guy was on the Mad Hatters team. Love his bow and that huge drink glass. |
I don't know the name of this team, but they came in plaid and had huge mallets. I snapped this shot just as this guy was thumbing his nose at someone on the opposing team. |
There were some others great moments, but I didn't get good pics of them.
It was our last horrah before welcoming the kids back. Sean arrived Monday, and Lilly got back yesterday afternoon.
This week has been work, work, work. I expect the weekend will prove to be very full of work as well. Tomorrow we will welcome Chuck's nephew Charlie, who is coming from Nevada for a music school at a local university for a week.
