Now that the off-season for camping is here for many of us, I've noticed that the activity here on the forums has slowed way down.
One of my favorite things to do in the winter to pass the time is bowling. I've been bowling on leagues throughout the winter months pretty regularly since I was old enough to pick up a ball (probably about 35 years now).
My grandparents and my parents bowled on a Friday night league together when I was born and since I was in fact born on a Friday, my dad passed out cigars at the bowling alley that night.
As a kid I bowled on Saturday mornings and later I bowled on my high school team. When I was old enough, my wife and I joined my parents on their Friday night league.
I have 3 girls and let them all try it, but only my youngest stuck with it. She followed a similair path as me, bowling on Saturday leagues and is now in her 3rd year of HS bowling.
She is only on the junior varsity team right now but it's mostly because the varsity team is really, really good. They are currently the 2-time defending state and national champions.
Their 2018-2019 season is just starting up so we will be spending the next couple of months living at a bowling alley somewhere between practice, tournaments and matches. It's all worth it because I enjoy watching her bowl and she loves bowling as much I as did and still do.
Anyone else?
