So you're thinking our lawn isn't exactly like the All England Tennis Club courts?

I'm picturing my lawn and assuming that everyone else hates yard work as much as I do!

Good comeback.
Actually, right now our lawn is still recovering from the crazy lady/previous owner's dog. No better gift for the next home owner than keeping your lawn pristine until the house is in escrow and then letting the female dog go wild.
We also discovered behind the million potted plants she used to dress the place up for open houses that there was 3 years of weeds. We gave up and hired strong backs. Oy.
Hmm, so maybe I should do bocce ball for now and croquet when the lawn recovers? What do you drink when playing bocce?Frends know gud humors when dey is hear it. ~ Da Crockydiles of ZZE.

I would say anything with vodka....but then that's pretty much my answer for everything. Originally Posted by SadieKate

OMG, I think I found a bocce set here in town. Seems that some sporting good shops haven't figured out that Memorial Day weekend is only about 24 hours away.
Bocce does have the benefit of leaving one hand free for other actitivies.

Now yer gettin' somewhere. I said croquet because it's the game I've actually played. And I'm pretty certain you can enhance the experience with just about any beverage.... Do you get Meyers lemons up there? I seem to recall some sort of lemon drink that people like. Originally Posted by SadieKate
