Bowling has always been a game me and my family have enjoyed playing growing up. As a child I remember mom in the bowling leagues at Thunderbird Lanes, birthday parties at Seneca Lanes, and even an after prom get together at Northrock Lanes. It's a hobby that's been rekindled here in Japan. What once was a seemingly yearly event has now turned into a weekly staple. Every Sunday afternoon, as the weekend is dying down, I have been hitting the lanes here on base. I guess I'm getting pretty good, but still very inconsistent. Today was a milestone in a couple of ways, and I made them print out the score card because I knew no one would believe a fish story like this. On the last game of the day I miraculously started out with 5 strikes in row and ended with a personal best of 247, three strikes away from a perfect game. It was hard to act nonchalantly as the last strike came to try and convince everyone else I had meant to do it. Ha!! Now let's see if I can ever do it again. If you can't see the scorecard well enough click on it and it will blow up a little bit. Oh, and to Keith in DC, I want a rematch!!
