Far and Away Backgammon: The out-of-towners knew a good thing when they saw one. BGBB welcomed faces from lots of places to our tourneys in August: locals Joe Glazier and Kim Scheinberg (with husband Dan and new baby, what a pretty picture!) checked in after too long away; Sam Ahmed took a happy hop down from Sacramento; Cindy Moss visited from Newhall, California; Gene Chait revved over from Reno; Gregg LaRue came from Reston, Virginia; and the longest long-distance award this month goes to Stephen Nelson, bringing greetings from Hong Kong.
Y'all come back again soon, please!
