It was only practice, not some big ‘to do’ in a converted warehouse, gymnasium or arena. No, practice took place along side of my yard. Nevertheless, spectators were right on top of me.
One shy onlooker watched me from a distance and was quick to duck away if we made eye contact for long or when I began to approach.
Then there was this crowd in the bleachers. It was a noisy group in constant motion.
And finally, the one fellow that sat off shore a few yards and watched. Once we made eye contact, he to ducked away.
Overall, an interesting practice session.
