Lawn Bowling


             Last Sunday we went lawn bowling. After waiting some time for the weather to clear up, we finally got on the grass. We broke up into groups of 5 or 6 people. Going into it I thought it was going to be like bocce ball. I am not good at that or bowling, so I wasn’t expecting to be that great at this either. The point of the game is to roll a ball, known as bowls, so that they come close to a small ball, called a “jack” or “kitty.” It took me awhile to realize that the bowls were actually asymmetric, so it kept going in the wrong direction. After many tries I started to get the hang of it, but still managed to end the day with a score of 0. After doing it once, I would love to go back on my own and try again. Hopefully, I will be able to score some points the next time.
