It is one of the few annual events in my life and I look forward to it every year. This year’s jam was especially special because there is now a house at the Land (in Warwick, NY) to shelter us from the elements; the weather this entire month has been dismal, and this weekend was no exception. Saturday was a rainout, but that didn’t stop us from playing one of the best whiffle ball games ever. As always, the food, beverages, music and company was top notch, and even rain can’t damper the refreshing feeling of being out in the woods and away from the intensity of the city. Despite the house, we still burned tons of wood (and only wood!) in the bonfire and slept in tents, embracing the spirit of camping. I am already planning for next year!
Here is the final play of our whiffleball game — bottom of the 10th, tied 7-7, and a dispute for all eternity. You make the call…
