Pickleball league night: October 3 2025

avatar

Okay, here’s the problem with pickleball, versus walking a trail, and all the other things I do for fun and exercise: I almost never take any pictures! I’m honestly too busy running around on the court.

So for this post, I actually resorted to grabbing a picture from Pixabay!

I have a severe addiction to this game! I’m currently playing in a league, and I’ve met so many great people. We always have an enormous amount of fun. I’ve never found a sport before that has such a perfect mix of serious and silly.

Well that’s how I got my steps today — playing pickleball for almost two hours. Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Seki1. It is all the rage in the U.S. Think of tennis, but on a tiny court, with a lightweight ball (as seen in the picture). The lines for a pickleball court can actually be drawn on top of the lines for a tennis court. The rules are different from tennis, and you almost never play singles. My coach says it's a combination of tennis, ping pong and chess. But I haven't exactly nailed down the strategy part, so I couldn't tell you how chess fits in. The game moves very fast, so I totally get how it's like ping pong!

Yes… I prefer walking on the Trails or kayaking each day…

Taking photos and making movies for YouTube…

Just with my iPhone 15
It’s very easy to make 1 Minute YouTube Shorts with the YouTube app on my iPhone… and add Music from the YouTube Music Library …for Free…

Some people are earning $1,000 a day with their YouTube Shorts

This was filmed walking on the Rideau River Trail with my iPhone 15

It has great image stabilization … almost looks like a drone

Thank you for sharing that, @offgridlife! I'm going to try it. I take photos and videos ALL the time. I've just been nervous about putting my stuff out there on YouTube... I thought I'd have to be on camera, which I really dislike.

You have inspired me! Thanks so much. Also, I'm about to upgrade to the iPhone 15, so that's great to know about the stabilizing feature.
