A day on the green


Last minute invites to spend an afternoon with friends usually turn out to be the best... and yesterday was no exception. Birthday girl D invited a few of us for lawn bowls at her local club. And I can't tell you how much fun it was. Lawn bowls gets you moving, but none of that vigorous sporty nuisance (it was Sunday). It keeps you guessing, how much speed, what angle, what's the flippin' wind going to do next? Catching up with good friends is fun anytime, any place, but with a gentle competitive spirit thrown in, things are always more interesting. Add a full blue sky, gentle breeze, cheap beverages, world-famous pastry shop around the corner and the afternoon was perfect. Perfectly divine.

And I won... sort of.
