The big game was being played when we arrived. It was girls against boys and I'm not sure who won, but I was rooting for the girls. The corn hole board was a gift to Barbara for Mother's Day and it seems to be in use very often. Here's Barbara & Taylor competing against each other with their partners down at the other end.

For those of you that don't know what the game of corn hole is all about, a brief introduction follows.
There are 4 bean bags per player or team and tossing the bags onto the board scores a point or 3 points when it goes in the hole at the top of the board. There are cancellation points much like horseshoes and the game is played to 21 points. One doesn't have to win by 2 points and the first to 21 wins. It seems that a beer or drink to help level your throw is part of the game. Or at least, that is how the game is played in North Carolina.

That was our Sunday, how was yours?
Great company, great food and great time...thanks for coming! I'm with you that this is 2 weekends in a row of late nights and 2 Monday's in a row that I think I did as much yawning as work! Of course as you know anything past 9:30pm is a late night for me no matter what night of the week it is!

Spending time with the family is much fun but definitely wears us older folks out. Remember when we used to go night after night and still work during the day and then go out again. Barely remember those days anymore.
ReplyDeleteBack here in Illinois we call it "bags". The bars have tournaments. It's a big deal. Ron even made a set of the wood and I made the bags. He talked about making a set in Arizona too. Don't know what happened that he didn't.
