Durango Boot

Quite a few ghosts from Pike past showed in Brumfis for some throwing in the wind and a couple of hours of Durango Boot to whet our appetites for Ethiopian food.  Der Über team was kind enough to give lessons on how the game is meant to be played and fun was had by most.

PADA Mosh, Day 2

The weather today was even better than yesterday's! 

We rolled up to the polo fields for our 11am start against Bagger Noo, featuring such Pikes as Leon and Cuatro.  It was a fun game and we managed to come out on top.  Semis pitted us against what I assume was a NY based team, though I only say that because Joe Smash was playing with them.  They played well and consistently and won by a couple of breaks in the end.  What can I say?  It was fun while it lasted.

PADA Mosh, Day 1

Johnny Handblock was back again with a bunch of the usual suspects and a couple of new faces and even a few old faces in new places.  Saturday wasn't too much of a challenge as we all enjoyed the beautiful weather and rolled through our 3 pool play games.

Afterwards, we went out with some old friends to Hank's Place were we gorged ourselves on the local cuisine, most notably the D-licious Mushroom Strudel.
