Every year, my work holds some sort of outing, such as dinner somewhere, or a night at the opera, or a rope climbing course. Last year (we haven’t had this year’s yet) the boss thought it would be good to try lawn bowls. Pretty much noone had ever tried it before, so it was good to be on a generally level playing field.
I had a lot more fun than I was expecting to, and the team I was on won! A lot of people thought the fact my boss was on that team had something to do with it, but we didn’t cheat, honest! Unfortunately I can’t take any credit for the victory because I was hopeless, but nevertheless it was still a fun day.

It’s funny how goofy little games like that end up being a lot more fun than you think they will be….

I’ve never tried bowling myself, but this reminds me of my last job and the works outings we had. The last one, they took us for a golfing lesson and it was the most boring sport I’ve ever participated in lol.
Great pic!

I played a lot of this as a child. In florida we had level ground to play on. but now in GA too many hills. Great shot!
Thanks for stopping by today! Hope yours has been a super Saturday!

Is that like bowling on a lawn instead of in an alley? Looks like fun!! I maybe done this as a kid with plastic do-hinkys but never with real pins and bowling ball.
