Curling. I've Been Schooled!
"My sincere apologies for having nothing to write about today. I really had great intentions of blogging yesterday except I got into a fight. With the couch. The couch - it won. The riveting bouts of curling were just too much! Not. Really, is curling a SPORT? I mean, can you sweat or injure yourself when curling? If any professional curlers are reading this, I sincerely apologize. Ah-hem. What was I saying again?"
THEN, I got this email from one passionate Curler! She said:
"Kris,
Please enough about poking fun at the Curlers ! Yes it is a sport and I
actually curl in the Trempealeau/Centerville area, which is only about 25
minutes from your store. Yes you really can sweat and it is a fun
game--of strategy !!!! Our club has sent many of our members to compete in many
different levels through out the United States as well as our club hosting the
Jr. Nationals which was attended by young people from all over the United
States. It appears that this is the year for those of us who do curl to take
several hits from the people who really don't understand the game. Anyone is
welcome to watch--we have leagues Monday - Thursday nights starting at about 4
PM going thru 10:00 PM and this weekend there is a Men's Bonspiel which starts
on Friday. A bonspiel is what we call a tournament.
OK now I will stop. Can you tell that I really love the game and yes it
really is a sport !
Have a great day!
Vickie K"
