Thoughts and information about games. Saturday, May 20, 2006. Games Played May 20, 2006. One key to happiness GAMES. Another fun family game day. Eventually, I got rolling, collecting a VP card and even the Largest Army. On my last turn, I grabbed the Largest Army points and placed another settlement, which left me in third place, as Katrina won the game. Results: Katrina first; Mason second; me third; Dan fourth; Sue last. First or second all day long); Katrina third; Joel fourth; me fifth; Dan last.

Thoughts and information about games. Monday, February 27, 2006. One key to happiness GAMES. For those of you who think the original Carcassonne. I believe Hunters and Gatherers. Could become the Battlefield of the Tribes, by making the same rule change. Also, consider playing Carcassonne (or H&G) in teams, allowing team members to combine their troops in cities, roads, and fields (or forests, rivers, and valleys), to outnumber their opponents. There are some intriguing possibilities here. It was an inte...

A weeping willow tree overhung the grassy bank, dipping several long, flexible limbs into the water. The willow leaves appeared to be filtering the flowing water, as though fishing for something to catch. As I pondered this parade of flotsam interacting with the sta...

Sunday, September 17, 2006. Some of the best drives are on mountain roads in the Colorado Rockies. The most interesting of these are the backcountry dirt-and-gravel byways that bob and weave through a beautiful variety of scenes.

The maintenance crew has graded small pull-offs whenever possible, each just large enough for one vehicle to stop out of traffic’s way. Gerald McDaniel, September 2006.
