Cribbage, anyone?

Argie's Wife · 04-28-2010, 09:35 AM

UPDATE: I've received several PM's from folks who are interested. I'm waiting to hear back from the director of Alton Parks & Rec. Dept (she's on vaca this week) and as soon as I have a place nailed down for us, I'll let you know...

Stay tuned....

I understand there's going to be some awesome players there - I'm bringing a pillow because I know they're going to kick my butt. I'm a decent player but nothing to brag about... I play cribbage like I bowl or golf - I'm in it to have a good time like the big kid that I am....

Thanks - just backing some of the great teachers we have at our elementary school. One of them happens to be the youngest Argelet's teacher and we are truly blessed to have her working with our son!

Argie's Wife · 05-31-2010, 07:38 AM

We had a nice little turn-out yesterday with about seven of us playing. There were all different skill levels there. I think Jeanzb1 cleaned the boards nicely with a few of us - she got a nice 24 count hand in the last round of games - lucky duck!

Anyhow, we're on again next Sunday if y'all can make it. If Sundays don't work for you or you'd prefer a different time, just let me know. I'm open to moving the dates/times around... nothing is set in stone.

Hope to see you soon!

Jeanzb1 · 05-31-2010, 10:25 AM

Hats off to you, Argie's Wife, for organizing this cribbage group! We look forward to playing every week!

It takes people like her to get the ball rolling and others follow and really enjoy themselves.
Although I do not play Cribbage and my dad god bless his soul sure did try to get number 2 son to learn to keep him company, I pass on my gratitute to Argie's Wife for doing what she has done to try and get people that do enjoy the game together.

tjarvela · 06-13-2010, 09:22 AM

This is Tom and we won't be able to make it to cribbage today. We're busy with birthday/family stuff for Colleen.

See you next week.

Jeanzb1 · 06-13-2010, 10:08 AM

I have a birthday cake all ready to bring today, but I will put it in the freezer and bring it next week instead.

Birthday wishes to you!

15-2, 15-4 and a pair makes 6.

Argie's Wife · 06-13-2010, 03:34 PM

Happy birthday to you Colleen! May you have a 29 hand soon!

ATTENTION: There will be NO CRIBBAGE on Fathers' Day, Sunday, June 20.

A notice will also be printed in The Baysider.

Hope to see you on June 27, when we meet again to play!
