St George and the Dragon

St. George was famous for having slain the dragon but Marjorie and I received much kinder treatment. We lost 13 to 11 at the hands of St George stand-ins Ron and Barbara but we at least left with our heads.

St. George has the best pickleball facility I've played on and that includes The Villages, Naples, West Peabody and Surprise AZ, even better than the courts in Reading!

Above is a picture of 24 pickleball courts, with canopies, permanent nets and restrooms. All for the use of the public.

Each court is marked off by a fence so you never have to hear "ball on court"ever again. Finally, the people were friendly and accommodating. We'd be a lot friendlier too I suppose if we had a place like this. On second thought coming from Boston probably not.
