Gobble Gobble!

So last night was a good one, Austin, Lisa, Kellie, and I decided to go bowling. It was a nice change of pace from the usual not doing anything. We met at Rubio's and had some glorious Mexican food and chatted it up. The main topic of discussion, how depressed we are not to be getting packed for Ensenada; I can't even begin to tell you how sad I am, but there is nothing I can do to change it so we will move on.

We headed over to Saddleback Lanes to blow it up. Once there we ran into Anna, Brianna, Heidi, and Schmidtty. It was quite funny and we talked it up for a few minutes. Then we proceeded to put our name in, and the man said it would be about a half an hour wait. Not too bad for a Friday night. So we sat and waited and laughed as we did some nice people-watching. About 20 minutes later, the man comes over the loud speaker and says, I kid you not, "The parties of Fabio and Derek G, your lane is ready." We had quite a little giggle from that. Then we tore it up on the floor and got a solid two games in. This family that shared the conjoining lane with us had their probably 4 year old son and 3 year old daughter. They were by far two of the funniest kids ever. The boy, was the most serious 4 year old(or however old he was) bowler I have ever seen. Mind you, they were playing with bumpers, but still; he would hit at least 7-8 pins down on average every roll. If it was your turn with him next to you, you were shaking in your boots because of his intimidation factor. Each time he didn't get a strike it might as well have been a waste of a throw, it was hilarious to watch.

Now on to the "Gobble Gobble!". For those of you who are unaware, in the last frame you get your normal two bowls. But then, if you get all the pins down, you get a third roll. In the last frame, if you get a strike, then another one, then manage a 3rd strike in a row, it is called a Turkey. I do not know why, I am just relaying the information onto you. So somehow on the second game I managed to get 2 strikes in the last frame. Then I was on my third bowl, extremely nervous, and got 7 or 8 pins down! It was such a bummer, but fun none the less. I was so close!

Bowl a Turkey

Have a great spring break!

Thanks for caring.
