In case the weather turns

yakky doodle · Jan 15, 2003

and I can't do the fence, anyone up for a bowling night somewhere this weekend (it's a 3-dayer for most of us! :biggrin:

)? I tossed this one out once before and a few people said yes (who, like me, were willing to make a fool of themselves).

Since dinners don't seem to work too well, I thought bowling might be fun. If anyone else is game, lemme know! :cheers:

I'm game, and the sooner I know - the better. I think something like that would be fun! We just have the stinkin' marriage prep. classes, but that's Saturday during the day.

Otter and I do have family stuff this weekend but we love to bowl. Real bowling, that is. :biggrin:

real bowling? what other kind is there?

of course, the only hitch is this: if the weather is bad enough that we can't do a fence, we may not be able to drive too far, either to bowl. But I'm game! :cheers:

the picture should explain it. Are those the type of pins and balls you're talking about?

and your "pins" are so fat and round!!!

bowling; 10-pins; one ball; two tries (no bumper helpers -- except for the kids)!

does duckpin bowling still exist??

yakky doodle · Jan 15, 2003

okay; heck, i'll learn a new game. where do they have it? any bowling place or only a few select (and likely far away) places?

I use to love going to "Curly's" in Waldorf for duckpin bowling. I have no clue if there are any places left.

I've never even heard of duckpin bowling, but Dean talks about going all the time as a child. I was deprived, I tell ya!

Snow day = Hooky = Bowling!!!! YEA! Count me in - you sure I can't get help? Can I be spotted a few points so my board doesn't look empty?

Maybe it is like target pratice and we get to shoot ducks, but instead of a gun we pin them in an alley and throw balls at them. :biggrin:

Just an idea. Sounds like fun to me.

Duck pins are shorter and smaller than regular pins. The balls are hand-size and you get 3 rolls instead of two. I haven't played since I was a kid, they're hard to find.
