Starting my day

We had breakfast in the room (blackberries and yogurt). Now, we're at the alley - Syosset Lanes - and I'm gonna be the first in line. Hope the lane and the ball are happy today!!

Tough games this morning

The first games averaged out so far to be 1 point over average. My first game of the day was terrible, though, and for some reason, I was nervous!! I'm never nervous bowling. It might have been because I was the first in the lineup on my lane.

The cool thing is, though, we're meeting some really excellent people and other bowlers. This is so much fun, even though I'm kinda sucking right now.

One pin under average

My morning games were OK. I ended with one pin under average, which is 118 (yes, know it's not great, but I'm ever increasing it). I'm expecting that the afternoon will be better.

The end of the day

The afternoon was really great!! I actually got a red apple pin because I hit 40+ points over my average! My second game was a respectable 179, which surprised me and our opponents. Very happy and really looking forward to dinner.A business associate of Matt's invited us to dinner.
