On The Road Again - Part 2: The Great Cornhole Tournament

Part two of our trip was spending time with David, Joanna, Tony and Marie...and of course, Tyson and Bernie. This was the first time we met Bernie and we just loved him.  He's an enthusiastic baby wrapped up in a furry, squat body with a permanent scowl on his face.  Plus, he's got the wildest eyes...it looks like he went way overboard on eyeliner and mascara!

The house that David and Joanna rented was really nice.  I think the best part was the pool.   It was very hot in Siesta Key so the cool water was a relief. 

It was a relaxing time, but there was definitely an under current of competition as we all anticipated the long awaited  Swegle Cornhole Competiton.  David is currently the reigning champ, but who would take home the trophy and be named the Swegle Cornhole Champions of all time?  Or, at least until the next competition!

The "kids" were absolutely brutal and dead on with their bean bag tosses.  Tony and I went down in defeat very quickly.  After that, it was brother against brother and the ex softball pitcher (Marie) against the secret weapon (Joanna, who had some great throws!)  

Here's the trip highlights.....and the ultimate Cornhole Champs!

She's small, but mighty!   Joanna was the secret weapon--don't let her tell you she's not good at Cornhole!  But did they win????


Bernie shares a victory brew.....


...and says, "Congratulations to the new Cornhole Champions of the World"...for now!


Like Father, like Other Son!  Tony Jr shares his Cornhole tossing secrets!
