Not completely on subject, but a memory many will think fun, I hope!
When I came down one December while my house was being built, having run out of Lifestyle perks, I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express. The first morning I woke up hearing a weird noise that I was sure was something dripping. I searched and searched the bathroom, then realized that the noise was coming from the outdoors.
Ah ha! Pickleballers were out doing their thing as early as oh-dark-thirty at La Hacienda. I'd never heard the ping-ping before! Makes me glad that I'm out of ear-shot from the rec centers!
