    I can play after 6 on weekdays and not too early on weekends.

    I'm a little rusty but I can get back into it pretty quick. Let me know when you can hit.

    Hey Phil...I wonder if you have been getting my messages...

    I tried to book courts for tomorrow 6pm early today but they do not have any...

    Do you know any other options? we could try the following:
    Austin High (Town Lake) Tennis Center
    If you are OK with that place, go ahead and book the courts for 6pm and let me know...

    I can get there at 5.30 or 6 or 6.30. Anytime after is too late to start.

  • Ram

    Oh did you not get courts for today? Yes, I want to make it a weekly thing...for me South Austin is better, other places are just too far...
