Petanque and dinner with Richard...

Our lovely luncheon on Friday was followed up by petanque and a bar-b-que at Richard's on Saturday - a very busy social calendar!

It was a beautiful, sunny Saturday, and we enjoyed a mildly competitive game of petanque, lots of liquid refreshments and a fabulous dinner!  Thanks, Richard!

Pat and Richard, taking a break on the lovely garden bench

Bryan, tossing the very heavy petanque ball to see how close to the "kitty" he can get.  Richard was very specific that we NOT use his cat, Madam, as a target.

Dianne, taking aim at the "kitty" - she's really good at this game!

Great photos, keep 'em coming! Is petanque like bowles?

Yes, it is a bit like bowles but is French. It is usually played on gravel or sand...
