the fourth of july

If you were sitting there biting your nails waiting to find our how the great Carre M performed in the tennis tournament, the wait is over.

My illustrious partner Mel and I lost 6 to 0. But fun was had by all. Tom and Jesse both won their first games and went on to play again. The winner of the competition was a 12 year old boy who played amazingly well assisted ably by a 56 year old.
Afterwards we assembled for the proverbial cocktails and toasted the 100 year history of Charlevoix. It was quite emotional as the older generation shared their memories and the younger ones frolicked in the grass with puppies and dogs.

Here is the conquering hero of the tennis match. Ben Borris quietly contemplates his win.
And then if that wasn't big enough for one day we had dinner and then all assembled on the beach for the big bonfire and fireworks. And then finally all went home and had a well deserved sleep!
