The hardcore girls and Jerry were on the tennis court again tonight. Jerry has a couple of more days before his surgery on Monday, so he took the opportunity to smack some tennis balls. He will be out of action for most of a month minimum, so he wanted to play. We split sets tonight 4-6, 7-6, and we all had a good time. Sometimes real life gets in the way of tennis, but we all hope for good results in the operating room. We have USTA mixed doubles tomorrow evening at Fort Snelling, and it's Jerry's team, but he'll be sitting it out.
KS, in our chat yesterday, described some the music in Japan that she's been drawn to. There is an old style of music called "enka" that is usually popular with the older generation, but KS has sung it in karaoke, and in Japanese, which surprises the Japanese around her. It would be like a Japanese person singing some old Frank Sinatra tunes, I suspect. A link to Enka says it all. She's coming home in April.
Unky Herb will be off for a side trip to New York City soon. It's his first trip there. He'll be attending a temple event and visiting a friend in the Big Apple. He has shown no interest in looking up Dave Letterman or going to the Hello Deli. The younger generation shows some promise.

Is that an orange, or a tangerine? I have heard that a cold snap brings out the sweetness in citrus. So refrigerate your oranges. Good to hear that the hardcore group is soldiering on. Sometimes, that's the best thing.

It's a tangello, but nice catch. It was only in the snow briefly, for the photo, so its sweetness was likely unaffected. The weather was more like the freezer than the refrigerator. Likely colder than most freezers. They don't usually need to cool anything down to 6 degrees. TT
True... freezers aren't that cold. You should have stayed in Florida longer. You would have enjoyed this morning's ride. SS
Cool photo effect. Let Unky Herb know that he's invited to visit his cousins here in CT while he's on the East Coast, if he desires. I'm about 1 1/2 hours away on the train. NM
