rolling bowling.

 

A week or so ago we went bowling on one of those dark and rainy afternoons - the ones where it gets dark at 3:30 and the kids feel cooped up from days of dreariness. On our way home from errands we made a last minute right turn and found ourselves in the bowling parking lot.

The kids have never been before, but they have been dying to go. They clapped and jumped up and down we thought they may have mistaken Park Bowl for Disneyland. Alas, they did not. But likely had just as much fun. Starting with the shoes. "We wear SPECIAL shoes!" and taking 18 minutes to pick the perfect ball. And watching their slow rolling balls take about 2 minutes to roll all the way to the pins. And watching it come back up the ball return. Oh, the excitement of watching the balls come out the return!
