Good morning chuckie. Good luck with your weight loss!

Hiya BetterMost friends.
So, what's happening everyone?
I decided to broaden my horizons a bit yesterday, and perhaps get some extra exercise as well. I googled "gay bowling league" yesterday and found one that bowls every Tuesday night, in the next town over, only about 15 minutes from my house.
Downside: Their season runs from Septemer to May, and since we're in March, that leaves almost no time left now.
Upside: I can register for the start of the next league, and that gives me about 6 months to practice and get back into the habit of bowling. I haven't bowled in years, but I do own a bowling ball.
Perhas I'll meet some cool new friends!
Today's Travel Destination:
Acapulco Bay, Guerro, Mexico.
Acapulco, once known as Hollywood's beach club and then robbed of its luster after an over-eager influx of tourists, is now experinecing a certain rebirth of popularity. Travelrs come for some of the most romantic views on Earth, including unbeatable sunsets over the horseshoe-shaped bay and the Pacific Ocean.

Bowling sounds great....and yes a good idea to practice a bit if you havent played for a while. There may be some pain.
What a great idea to have some fun, exercise and meet new friends.
Chances are they still play, even when the league isnt on, so you may be able to meet up with some, before the league starts back in September.
Do you have LAWN BOWLS over there in the US?...No similarity whatsoever with ten pin bowling, and its played on grass.Its very popular here with the older community, and once was only played by people over 60, but now younger people are joining in, they even have it for a school sport in some schools. My son Paul has been playing for years and he's only 40. Its played outdoors, so the weather can disrupt it at times.
Take care mate.

g'day Sue!
Is lawn bowling like our indoor bowling, with the players rolling the ball at pins?
I don't think we do that here, but I could be wrong. I think the closest we may come is bocce ball.
Mandy21:
Chuck, I'm just so proud of you for being so resourceful and finding this potential new outlet for all your endless and astonishing energy. That's great! Maybe you could just go and watch them play on Tuesday nights and get to know some of them in the interim before you officially join?
