Five From Sunday

Earlier today some friends and I met for afternoon bocce at James J. Walker park in the West Village. I forgot my camera so these cameraphone photos will have to tell the story. The court isn't flat. That much I should make clear up front. It's hard to believe tournament bocce was played here last weekend. If I'd been in the bracket to play in Manhattan, I would've been very disappointed.

(There's no scoring mechanism, so I made me own from a camera tripod and dry-erase board.)

I think this bocce on Sunday mornings/early afternoons may become a regular thing. Let me know if you're into playing on a semi-regular basis. I think we've got a few more weekends before the weather turns. This spot would be pretty great for night bocce, too. It looks like there are lights, but I'm not sure if they get turned on or not.
