Tippler's Bane mushroom
Bowling last night. I'm comfortable enough now w/ the routine to watch what was happening around me. It's a woman's league and most of the members are older. Not much drinking going on - water bottles and soft drinks mostly. Everyone leaves after bowling - bowling is just a fun get-away to these women before going back to their responsibilities. I'd noticed on the first night how many "loft" their balls. I've concluded that it might be in part because many of these women have trouble bending their knees so they let go of the ball before it reaches the lane. (Could also be their technique since some are quite accurate using this method.) One woman tires quickly and by the second game merely walks up to the foul line and kinda tosses the ball from there. (Again, she too gets her share of spares and strikes.) Me... I just try to enjoy every frame no matter how I do. Though having the highest scoring game for both our team and the team we bowled against last night did make the game a little sweeter. (In the interest of full disclosure, the very next game I didn't even beat the dummy,)

I still remember when Russ and Donna took me and Olivia bowling in Bruce. Had no idea how to bowl even somewhat successfully until he taught me how.
Thanks Russ!

I remember Russ consistantly bowling 30mph.
