Candlepins? Bowling? New England?



Here in these parts of the States, New England folk bowl with small, skinny pins and a hand-sized bowling ball, also known as Candlepin Bowling. Corey's section went last year to test it out and discovered it was a little more tricky than it originally looked. Needless to say, they ended up bowling with the beefier bowling balls and pins this year. I will say that in the very same bowling alley, the main floor is strictly designated for candlepin bowlers, where as a few lanes upstairs are for the irregulars.

So FUN! I'd want to try the candlepin bowling. Elsie sure looks cute :) And the group that you were with looks like fun :) I bet it was nice to have other kids there too :) You always do such a good job with your pictures -- you have such a creative eye!
