Kids Again

(riding to the park)

Last year we had a rousing game of wiffle ball for a Sunday Slow Ride activity, and it turned out great. From the choosing teams, to the arguing over rules, to the 5th inning stretch bike derby. Everyone had a great time and the injuries were kept to a minimum. Alas, trying to recreate events and experiences only goes so far.

Sunday was our second wiffle ball game day and it was a lot of fun. We played a little harder due to the balls not being quite as wiffly, so they moved a little faster. We had an impromptu derby, but it wasn't the all out pandemonium that derby can be. People had other commitments, slowly reducing our numbers until we had to make a trade to keep things even.

(serious gaming business)

I know it was a good time because I was very tired when I finally came home. Enough energy to eat some dinner and watch a little hockey. Just like being a kid, I fought going to bed. I am paying for it now, tired and cranky, trying to be ready for the real world.
