Ultimate weekend

Just a quick post to announce that I had a great weekend and arrived home in Davis safe and sound. I drove down to Santa Cruz early on Saturday morning and met up with the Caltech team. (Michelle, a former college teammate, invited me to play with them.) The fields were very dewy, so I played with damp feet all day long, and I'm going to lose one of my big toenails as a result. Gross. Besides that, it was a great day. Lovely weather, four fun games (I scored the winning "universe" point of our last game!), and great teammates. Nice Italian dinner, followed by dessert at an ice cream & cookie parlor. We only played two games today, which was about all I had energy for. We finished around one, and I got back to Davis around 4:30. I ate (a lot) and went for a walk with Scott, which was a good loosening up of the muscles after the drive but made me realize how tired my legs are. Looking forward to a movie tonight and a quieter day tomorrow.
