Day 236 ~ A Friendly Game of Chess!

Daniel and Thomas, thinking hard!

 We went to Karen's Parents last night because some family came to town. Here is Daniel playing chess with Thomas. Both are brilliant strategists so you know it's going to be a close game. As it turns out, Daniel won, but, by all reports, just barely. They seemed to be evenly matched.

The game!

Later on they played a game called Bughouse chess which involves two chess sets, four people and some quick thinking. I'm not sure who won that game!

See you tomorrow!

day 184 ~ Bowling for Fun!

notice my professional form

 Our church went to the navy base to use its bowling alley. Only one dollar a game. Not bad. I am a horrible bowler but Karen and I had a lot of fun with our friends.

Throwing a ten pound ball; it's all I could handle.

 We bowled with two "professionals" who are in a senior league. Cheryl and her husband, whose name escapes me now, were the two top bowlers in our lane.

No, I didn't get the spare! 

We also had pizza.  It was a fun night.

See you tomorrow.

Day 125 ~ A Boy with a Magic Trick!

Nothing up his sleeve...

 Last night at church, this kid was really excited to show me a magic trick...He showed me a knot and with just one flick of the wrist,.....

It's Magic!

....  the knot is gone!

Gosh, magic is fun.

Here's the Video Version!

See you tomorrow.
