Re: (...)
We had gorgeous weather at the shore and met this cute little couple.
Can't believe I forgot my hookup with the world, but got lots of good work done without having to jump on the interet all the time.
for those of you who play cribbage - R & I have never done this before........
Hope you can see where the pegs are -
I didn't win!! All the changes in the trailer worked wonderfully for us and just think how many thousands of $$$$ we saved ourselves. Whew!
Now, to go read and see what's been happening around here. Hope there were no funny folks.

I love cribbage! My dad taught all of his children to play because it was a "math game".
Lovely photo of the sailboats on the water too. Nice to see after that dumb ol snowstorm!

My grandfather taught me cribbage when I was about 10 or 11, and I still love it. Used to pay it online, but no longer use the site on which I did (there are probably other sites available, though).
If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?

The Hubby has a cribbage board his grandfather made - it's very sentimental to him. We spent hours and hours playing cribbage when we first met/got engaged all those years ago.
When we have a power outage, it's what we turn to. I totally devastated him in Monopoly and he won't play that game with me anymore.

Welcome back, Jean! Hope you had a wonderful time and had a chance to relax a bit. I never played cribbage either, but just might have to learn since so many of the others have said they enjoy it.

Anyone up for a game of Scrabble? I don't take any prisoners.

But, but, but did you notice where the pegs are in this game???? We've never been tied going into the last hand - that's what I was referring to.

One of our friends gave us his cribbage board - said we'd need it when the snow was 10' deep. When I was a kid canasta was mandatory on Sundays. Dad and I always lost to Mom and my brother. Card games . . . ????
Glad you're home Jean, I can't show Bob the sailboat picture, he'll whine.
You only live once . . . but if you do it right once should be enough!

I did notice, but did not realize you were going into the last hand! So who pegged out? That's when you choose a pegging hand instead of a points hand. Oh, Jean and Roy, wish hubby and I could challenge you to a couples match!
that is referred to as "dead holed"
