...darn, this snow isn't going to be good for tennis....dontcha know I spent about an hour yesterday shoveling crisscrosses into the court-snow with the backboard....so's the sun heat can penetrate into the court and speed up the melting....just watch....all that prep work and now it will probably get buried....it's already starting to flurry in WV....

this is slightly off-topic but hopefully no one will mind....while shovelling rows thru the white snow yesterday.....got me thinking...all tennis balls used to be white...fast-forward about 40 years...and now all tennis balls are brite yellow.....like whatever happened to white tennis balls and why the big switch to yellow.....if that can happen to tennis balls, could be it will happen to snow, too.....what's next....brite yellow snow? ya know those white tennis balls worked just fine...
