Week 4

Wednesday was your typical hot and humid summer night at the bocce courts, by hot and humid I mean really hot and humid.  The only saving grace was a slight breeze blowing and of course the big fans that were going.  We played what seems like our normal 6:30 and 8 games so we were in the weather for a while.
In the first game we played Boccelicous on the middle court.  I'm exaggerating when I say played, we never really showed up.  We gave up two and four point frames to fall behind 6-0, real hard to come back from.  We scored a point and then they scored the last three to give us a 9-1 loss.
In the second game we gave up a two and three point frames to fall behind 5-0.  This time instead of rolling over we started coming back.  Once we got the pallino we started going deep and scored six points in a row before they made a nice knock and walked away with the pallino.  They went real short on their last throw and we left it wide open.  We had a glimmer of hope when their second ball went long but alas they got the next two in for a 9-6 loss.
Not much positive about the loss.  Once again we gave up way too many easy three and four point frames and those are hard to overcome.
