    I like to mostly just hit around too. I'm usually free weeknights and weekends. Ever thinking of coming out to play closer to Fairfax?

    Oh you "rude, thoughtless, little pig!" Just kiddin'... Well, perhaps I will consider coming to DC one of these weekends. Not a big fan of the drive though. Is there a place to park at the tennis court or near your place if I were to make the trip?

    Hi Tara,

    Are you still looking for hitting partners? I live in Bethesda and could come down to Adams Morgan on evenings or weekends. You can reach me at 610-905-3896 or jeremylavine@gmail.com.

    Hope to hear from you!

    6:30 works. There's a happy hour in cleveland park I'd like to get to by 7:30-8:00ish, but if we keep to under an hour that would be fine. I've got a can of tennis balls.

    Heck, to my knowledge I'm disturbingly free this weekend. I'm open to giving this whole driving-to-DC-just-to-play thing a shot. If you're game...give me the time and place. I've got four cannisters of tennis ammunition.

    Thanks! I'll keep my eyes peeled for an update. I promise not to tell the bride and groom about the whole "unfortunately I have a wedding" remark LOL

    So, do you grab a jumbo slice before or after your matches? ;) I'm new to the tennis scene and looking to meet some people who play, interested?

    Unfortunate incident... I think we've all been there! So, I'm out in California this week (secret lessons with a famous pro coach!) but how does next Sunday afternoon sound?
