Dinner was great. It’s just always amazing to me that it takes four hours to fix this turkey dinner, but in 15 minutes it’s eaten and time to do dishes. Still worth it though. And there is just nothing like those turkey sandwiches.
Jim watched a lot of football over the week-end. I read. We went to Church and then got to watch some more football.
Monday night I decided to take the plunge. They have cribbage night at the clubhouse here in the park. I have not played cribbage in about 30 years and Jim has never played so we were just going to go watch and learn. When we got there we found out they were one player short so I was drafted. Needless to say I slowed things down a bit and didn’t come close to winning. But I did win three hands which made me feel good. Jim and I are going to practice this week for next Monday. It really was fun. And yes we do have a cribbage board. Guess I may need to buy Jim one of these boards though.
Jeri's 41 hmmm? Let's see, that makes me...
ReplyDeleteCribbage is one of those games we play just enough to think we remember how but to never actually get good at playing. :)
Bad thing about going out for dinner on Thanksgiving, no leftovers for sandwiches
ReplyDeleteI used to love to play cribbage. Hard to play with only one person though. :(
ReplyDeleteThat fish board would go right with your decor!
That fish makes a nice board. I have never played but would like to learn.
ReplyDeleteThe fish board would make a great Christmas gift for Jim. Sounds like a nice Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteHave never played it or even watched it being played. Maybe you can teach the dogs to play with you
ReplyDeleteOMG you are playing games. Yup, we play crib, or I play crib and Doug is learning.
ReplyDeleteWe have never played cribbage. Maybe we can learn this winter while in Mission.
ReplyDeleteGlad you took the picture of Jeri. Yes, I think she looks maybe 41.
I have always enjoyed cards, maybe we should learn to play. We often play Gin.
ReplyDeleteOK, So I'm now only realizing how often you guys eat out !! LOL That gets too expensive for my budget.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see you guys again in January.
Nice of you to go out to dinner with that young lass, I didn't think she was even that old.
ReplyDeleteNice cribbage board but how do you get the fish smell off your hands?
Great looking crib board!
ReplyDeleteI hope you learn to a lot about cribbage. We used to play but can't remember either so you'll get to show us how.
ReplyDeleteplaying crib is a camping staple at our campsite!..I am not very good..can't count the cards very well!!..lol..Doug is the expert!!
ReplyDeleteI hereby challenge you to a cribbage game if we ever meet up!
ReplyDeleteWe are long-time cribbage players, but haven't played recently. Let's see --- 15 two, 15 four, and a double run of three makes twelve! Yup, still remember how to count.
ReplyDeleteNow that is a crib board!
ReplyDeleteWe love cribbage and keep 2 or 3 boards in our rig at all times. We have our favorites, but some are good if you are playing with 3 or 4 people, so we need a *variety*... LOL

We actually have a cribbage board somewhere (I think in the shed back home with the left over motor home stuff) and I've played just enough to know that I really don't know how to play.
ReplyDeleteNever had a chance to keep at it.
I wonder if they even have cribbage boards here? I've never thought to look. Hm, maybe tomorrow.
We have a couple of cribbage boards but we don't play...maybe someday.
ReplyDeletecribbage was always a game we played at the cottage, and one that taught us how to count when we were kids! LOVE that board!
ReplyDeleteI've never played cribbage. I bet it's fun.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite card games, the reflection in the glasses could be a WINK, it's different, not poor photography, my opinion.
