Hola, my fellow Ultimata,
1. The field Alan's referring to is the same one used by the competitive
Sunday and (when it starts) Thursday games, and by Marisa's
less-competitive-but-with-sidelines game (in case you need to find it).
2. To make the situation a bit more in our favor, I'm planning on showing up
at ForHills around 5:30; feel free to join me early (I can always use
throwing practice).
See y'all tonight!
yrs,
twicker
