I stopped Curling at the end of the 2000 season when I started driving a truck. That year @ the London curling club my mens team won our Monday and Wednesday night competitive leagues and my mixed team won our league on Friday nights. What a way to retire... on top. Haven't so much as thrown a rock since, but have been thinking of signing up my 6 yr old son for a junior program.
Bernie, I know the feeling and sense of accomplishment you get from winning a spiel. It's something that you always remember.
