The holidays are here so a lot more players have the opportunity to play, the other day on Sunday at Pease park about 27 of showed up and the weather was perfect we even had a Bûche_de_Noël is a traditional dessert served during the Christmas holidays in France , Belgium, Quebec, Lebanon and several other Christian-populated francophone countries as well as in the UK. As the name indicates, the cake is generally prepared, presented, and garnished so as to look like a log ready for the fire. Pease park as being remodel a little so the grounds are was hard to play but the hardest it is the more we learn. All is well in the game of Petanque in Austin HAPPY HOLIDAYS A+ Love Arsene
