If you have a talent outside of Pickleball that you would like me to share with the group, please email me at toledopickleball@yahoo.com. I think it is fun to learn about one another and help support each other on and off the pickleball court!
Congratulations Tim!
Thanks Marsha. Congratulations on your 2 silver medals at the Auburn Hills pickleball tournament last weekend!!
Congratulations Tim! It’s a wonderful photograph. It’s always interesting to see what people do off the courts. 🙂
CONGRATS, TIM, your photography truly is beautiful and amazing; I’ve looked at your “albums” online and — as one who appreciates great photos and works with pictures — I’m in awe.
