Bocce on Thursdays - Week 8

This is a special week for us bocce players.  My mom is in town.  All the way from Boston, she plans on hangin’ with the crew tonight and watching the festivities.  Be on your best behavior.  With that said, is anybody playing tonight or is it going to be a family event?  Last week was awesome with four games of four most of the evening.  Can we do better this week?  7:00 pm in Wright Park.

    Actually this structure was build as the end of the line for the Tacoma Street car system. It was later converted to the Pagoda with the addition of the Japanese Garden.
    Let it be saved…

    You know the Park has wanted it gone despite protest… would be terrible if this is what they resorted to… hopefully the firefighters can tell if the fire was caused by arson and who did it.

    it was the chinese TING! Secret commie spy Pagoda sent to destroy our American god-fearing Pagodas!

    Sounds like the building can be repaired. Thankfully, our Tacoma Fire Dept arrived in time to put out the fire. Thank you TFD for saving this piece of Tacoma.

    @Jesse, it’s a fact the park proposed removal of the pagoda. From the TNT: Investigators now say the fire is “suspicious in origin…”

    Not sayin’ the park was behind the fire, but Clancy’s assumption probably passed through a lot of people’s minds…
