Well, we didn't get to play racquetball at Copper because Charles claimed an injury. We'll try to settle this tonight on the court with my friends Andy and Dan.
Copper was a blast even without the court-bashing.
We stayed up late, drank a little and snow-tubed during the day. But the highlight for me is always when the family gets together to play games. We usually break out Taboo. I was teamed with Charles and his dad, George and Tracy's cousin, Keeley. We smoked the competition in the final round with six answers in a minute!
Then we played Cranium which was a lot of fun and I learned a lot, such as:
* The Human body has about 1.5 gallons of blood ... and nurses don't necessarily know this!
* Very few people in Tracy's family know who Aerosmith is.
* When you hum "Stairway to Heaven," it really sounds like "Hark, the Heralds Angels Sing."
* Humming "Margaritaville" does not sound like "Margaritaville."
* Granite is metamorphic rock.
* Keeley's daughter, Breanne, who is in sixth grade, will probably have a future as a sculptor. She was actually able to mold her play-dough so that her team could guess "Buddah" by making the sculpture and then making little people bowing to him. Pretty amazing!
* Don't EVER get sick in Holyoke!
* I frequently get WAY too competitive about these things.
* Whistling while laughing is very difficult.
* Rum and apple cider taste really good together.

When you hum "Stairway to Heaven," it might sound like "Hark, the Heralds Angels Sing." When I hum it it sounds like Rockin Around the Christmas tree....
And sometimes like "Freebird."
Strange, huh?
