Rained all weekend, and tournament was cancelled before the end, but we had fun Game 3:  Greensboro  The game that never happened.  Had breakfast by 6:00a (thanks, Holiday Inn, for serving it early!), arrived at the field in the drizzly dark, and learned that our 7:15a game was cancelled.  Never a team to be let down, our boys played a game of 4-Square in front of the hotel while the parents packed.

Notice that only the SUVs dared approach the mud pit that the front of the parking lot had become.

We stopped by Eurosport HQ in Hillsborough, NC on the way home.  Turns out they were closed to customers on Sundays,  although they had pople there fulfilling catalog orders.  A nice gentleman came out and gave the boys some catalogs.

Another stop on the drive home: Jimmy's BBQ in Lexington, NC.  We loved the food and the authentic decor - check out the fish clock - but Evan didn't like having his Mallomar get stuck in the machine - twice!  He eventually got it and enjoyed a new taste sensation.
