Progress

As any of you reading this know, we had our second match of the season last night. This time, Maria arranged us with me a lead, Phil as second, Jonathan as vice-skip, and as always Maria as skip. We jumped on them early with the hammer in the first end and scored two, and never looked back. We managed 6 ends this time, and won 7-1 in the end. On the Rocks had its first official win! Jonathan played outstandingly, even when he missed shots he put them in the house. Phil and I improved immensely. Last time, we both struggled to even get them in play, but this time around, we struggled to get them in the house. Hopefully by the end of the season, we will be playing the shots that Maria calls.

At the Curling club, there were fliers about a bonspiehl(curling tournament) this summer in Wilmington, North Carolina. Immediately Phil knew he was unable to go, but fortunately Tyler, our alternate, is willing and able to go, and even suggested that our road trip should include a tour of colleges on the way. So On the Rocks will hopefully have its first bonspiehl on June 21 in Wilmington, North Carolina.

If you are reading this, a simple comment would be appreciated to know that I am not just speaking to myself.
