Four years ago, MICE built a backyard Petanque court for Dave and Arica. Petanque is a french version of Bocci. So every year they hold a very serious tournament on a summer afternoon.
Last year, nine months pregnant, I won the tournament (that's my silver trophy in the picture above). The year before Joel won it. But this summer the Davis reign came to a close - we were both out by midafternoon and spent the rest of the day drinking pastis and pink wine, and cheering on our friends.
