203!!!!!!!

I bowled my first ever 200+ game today!!!!! Every frame was a strike or spare! I'll get five different award patches from USBC for that game and the series total. My first game was 133, and the second was 117, but the manager of the bowling alley gave me one tip at the end of game two that changed everything for game three. Hopefully I'll be able to do it again next week!!!

Karl's landed at his first stop, which is on an island off the coast, so the crew has gone out for a seafood meal. He will be taking off again tomorrow morning EST. He's tired, but his cold sounds better today (at least through the phone).

I forgot to mention earlier that Matt was exhausted last night after running 5.5 miles yesterday afternoon at track practice. He couldn't wait to fall into bed early!

I got another paper turned in this afternoon and did an assignment for my music class. Garin and I are just hanging out at home tonight. I think we're both looking forward to bedtime!
