I haven't bowled for many, many, years! When I first bowled at Brunswick Via Linda I had more hair, a smaller waist, everyone smoked, the lanes were real wood and the balls were all black! (This was somewhere between the invention of cell phones and Facebook - a little hint, it was closer to the invention of cell phones!).
My sons asked my wife and I to go bowling with them a few weeks ago! Walked in the door and could actually see the pins, no smoke hanging in the air, the balls were actually different colors (which was cool) but I noticed a lot of "gangs" had taken over the bowling alley!! There were gangs of 7 and 8 years olds with their friends, there were gangs of kids with their parents, there were old gangs of people throwing orange and green balls down the lane and they were all having a ball!
Guess what? We had such a great time that we have put our own "gang" together and will be bowling in a fun league starting in June! If you want to come and say HI ..... look for the "Munsons" (our team name!).
