J'von's basketball game

We had such a great Sunday.  First of all we had good music at both churches.  Our regular guitar player at Fillmore was away on vacation, so for one song with very easy chords Dick played his twelve string - first time in three years, I think.  In case you missed my previous post - arthritis in some fingers on his right hand have kept him from playing it.  But he tried last evening and found that he was able to manage the easy G, C, D, and Em chords in this particular song.  At Houserville he plays bass guitar each Sunday.  The fingering for that is not nearly as difficult or painful.  

When we left Houserville we headed for Columbia in Lancaster County.  Frank's son J'von was playing in a basketball play-off, and Frank was bringing Destiny with him to watch the game.  We have never seen him play.  What a TREAT it was!!  That little guy is really, really good!  His mother said that his team won 16 games in a row and J'von often makes 15 points per game.  The team they played today was a challenge, but they were neck and neck right up to the very end, when the other team got a basket that won them the game.  J'von played the entire game - was not taken out once!  I forgot how much I love watching basketball games.  It was just really fun.  Here are some pictures of him.  I wish I had taken a video.

We love that he's number 20 - Frank's number in high school.  

After the game we went to a nearby diner to eat.  We weren't at all impressed with the diner, but the food wasn't bad and we had fun together. 

WHY did I not think to take a picture of J'von with his basketball playing grandpa???  Frank, Anthony, and Ray all played basketball in high school too.  I think it's time for a family game. 

We got home at 9:15.  Time to get started on plans for a new week.
