So its Canada Day and I am off to see the fireworks with my family. (Your July 4th equivalent). I walk past this pile of junk right by the site where the fireworks are and I see this. Now I did not have the guts to take it then, and went home and it rained all night and I forgot about it. The next morning I woke up with a huge case of pickers regret. There were hundreds of people walking past this -- surely someone must have picked it up. Out of desperation I drove down in rain to the site and sure enough, there it was for the pickin'. I can never remember the name of the game on the other side of it -- starts with a"p" -- pinoche or something? It now adorns our loft -- I had special permission to enter just this once.
The game is called Crokinole, a very competitive fun game.

That is a nice board & a nice pick.
Crokinole invite for manikin, walksoftly, packratplace and bellings, in loft at midnight after my folks are asleep...best two out of three.
Sounds like fun, I'll bring munchies.
