Day Three Hundred and Fifty Nine - Kelseys


Dear all

The Volley Ball season is finally over; it's been a steep learning curve filled with pain, triumph and bruised fingers. We celebrated the grand finale with a few drinks at the famous Kelsey's on First Street in Collingwood. http://www.kelseys.ca















Darren worked at various Kelsey's throughout his University career and spoke very highly of his experience, but we were yet to visit our local drinking hole and I was excited to give it a try. They are a well known family style restaurant serving good food at very affordable prices and the great thing about a franchise such as Kelsey's is that you always know what you are going to get.














After the final point was called, everyone shook hands and made their way to Kelsey's which, luckily for us, is now a stone throw from home.















Erin and Lindsey had organized apps and drinks on arrival and we were allocated a huge table upstairs at the restaurant which was perfect for the troop and people got stuck in immediately.















They served a great range of apps; wings, pizza, nachos and there were pitchers of beer ( with frosted glasses *glug glug*) lining the table.














Darren was extremely generous and threw in more pitchers and nachos towards the end of the evening as we all chatted away. I caused a raucous when I asked the group 'why is Wayne Gretzky so famous'. This comment alone sparked a major [and very animated] discussion.















And that was that; Volley Ball is over for another year and everyone is looking forward to the summer and * hurray * Beach Volleyball at Sunset Point!















And in other news:
