If I dare to give a unsolicited advice, bring the ear plugs unless you have good tolerance of constant traffic noise, since Seminary Park is right next to 83. If finding the nearest well-maintained courts is a priority, I'd go to Goucher.

Yes, MrHan, that is the place.

Thanks for the heads up! Hopefully the weather will cooperate, or Shell and I will just have to do battle over breakfast instead!

^^^It is Sunday, and Shell is covering the indoor option. My job was to investigate and secure various outdoor locations, for both tennis and for breakfast. I think we're good...I've got a whole list of ideas from you guys and my own surveillance!

Unless...anyone have any breakfast ideas in that area?

hollywood9826 · 08-28-2009, 04:11 AM

It should be clear by Sunday. And I cant help you with breakfast in that area. But good luck with that

Sup2Dresq · 08-28-2009, 04:26 AM

MrHan and Auzzie,

If you suspect rain, I can try to get you indoor time Sunday morning 8-10.

mrHan · 08-28-2009, 05:23 AM

Hopefully it'll be nice outside

Too bad; you would like my young friend, the Isner clone. Thanks for the courtesy of a reply.

Topaz · 08-28-2009, 07:06 AM

^^^Sunday I'm in Baltimore...I think I mentioned that before...or I'd be there with bells on!

I know you mentioned it before, Lady Topaz. Nothing wrong with my memory, although the rest of my body is falling apart. Must be all this serve-and-volley tennis I'm trying to play lately.

I do appreciate your very early reply; looks like Isner-clone and I will be playing singles.

that can work. 10am at kenmore HS? anyone else coming?

Topaz · 08-28-2009, 07:39 AM

^^^I can come out SAT morning, but have to leave something in the tank for a doubles match later that day.

However, if I don't show up, it is because I've decided to sleep in on my last chance to do so before going back to school.

Where is Kenmore HS?

datsveryinterestin · 08-28-2009, 08:44 AM

I can also come out to Kenmore MIDDLE school tomorrow morning @10am
if the weather is conducive to fuzzy ball smackin.

hollywood9826 · 08-28-2009, 08:46 AM

Hmm, well, not too much really. I'm thinking casual and having some healthy options would be great.

I did find a great sounding place called Stone Mill Bakery, but they appear to be closed on Sundays! Booo!

Then I also found The Nautilus Diner...any thoughts? The menu reminds me of a favorite diner in Ft. Lauderdale!

I couldn't really scare up much more from looking online, so if you've got any ideas, fire away!

Kenmore MIDDLE school is in Arlington...well within your radius! Corner of rt. 50 and Carlin Springs RD aka Dats' back yard.

LOL. But maybe he's one of those skinny types that eats non-stop and just doesn't gain weight?
