My last attempt to play Bridge

I love to play Bridge. But I just play it for fun. 

Do you play Bridge?
Other people are more serious about it. Much more serious. (My best friend in 7th grade Annette Rapleyea's father was one - he played professionally, whatever that means.)That ordinary people would be deeply serious about the game of Bridge hit home with me one year when we went down to the Ocean (actually the Delaware Bay) with the MG "T" Series club for a weekend. A group of the ladies needed a fourth, so I joined them - just for fun.
Well! 

I soon learned that these ladies were cutthroat about Bridge - and they were very upset about my casual attitude. Verbally so. Several of them didn't talk to me again during that weekend - and the looks they gave me would have replaced the air conditioner in the beach house. 

Brrrrrrrr.

Halloween in California

Here are a couple of pictures of my son-in-law at the Dia de la Muerto polo game in Del Mar, California, this past weekend.
Yup, they played the game dressed in costume.
He says, ". You can't quite tell but I had two pistols, an ammunition belt and a big red heart pinned to the costume. It was great fun to play polo with a big sombrero hat on (though a little hard to see)!!!"
