Everything. Is. Yellow. Even after some nice rain over the weekend, the car is COVERED. I traded the white fluffy stuff for the yellow fluffy stuff. I'm not sure what is worse. Nevermind. Cold is worse. Still, now that the weather has turned, let's open the windows and air out the house! NOPE. Not unless you want to dust and vacuum every hour or so. Plus use eye-drops, claritin, and -- oh heck -- may as well wear a full hazmat suit indoors. Pollen season basically runs from March through December (trees are March-June, grass is April-September, and ragweed goes August-December) so really, there are like three days at the end of February when the sun comes out that you can enjoy the fresh air. Never fear, most places are air-conditioned, meaning the air gets filtered to some extent, so you can -- say -- enjoy an evening of CRIBBAGE! 21 of us did just that this past Monday night. We paid out 5 places and 3 teams: Jerry Gooden took 1st with a 14 / 7 / 69 Jeff Raynes took 2nd with a 14 / 6 / 86 Al Robinson took 3rd with a 13 / 6 / 61 Bernard Whitfield took 4th with a 13 / 6 / 33 Steve Podolski took 5th with a 12 / 6 / 20 First Team: Mike Due (11) and Kristy Haught (11) Second Team: Joe Greiner (11) and Jennifer Johnson (11) Third Team: Tom Goeschel (10) and Larry Phifer (10) Poker hand: Jennifer Johnson with Quad 10s The full results can be found here, but the top 10 is below: Big thanks to Henry Douglass, who has gifted us with two more white cribbage boards. There are a few folks who prefer the white wood, as it makes pegs easier to see. Megan's brought them home with her to have her neighbor engrave the dedications on the back that Henry, Bernard, and Pegs all wrote. Here are the upcoming NC Tournaments:
