A trip further into Jersey Part 2 (Part 1 HERE)

Across the street, there's some horses

Zeus is a Green Machine

And then... Bowling?

Yes, bowling at some place called the Mouse Trap (yeah, I don't get it either).

Lori, Paul, and Emily. The day before Paul was using a cane, but he was too tough for that, so he threw it away. It was quite dramatic. He actually built a bonfire and threw the cane on top in an act of defiance, "You Will Not Hold Me Back!" he swore. Actually, that didn't happen, but it would have been really cool if it did. But he did start walking and driving on his own well before anyone expected.

This stupid photo is out of focus. Otherwise, this would be a sweet addition to you MySpace page, John. He's wearing his dad's bowling shirt from way back when he was New Jersey state bowling champion in the 1970s.

Here's that winning form.

Quote from John to me, "stop throwing that ball like a wuss and put some Guido Power into it." Well, it did go something like that.

Eligible guy with beard stubble and a house ("halse" in South Jersey).

A group of incredibly good looking bowlers.

If someone can fix the red-eye, I'd appreciate it. Just send it to my email, please.

One more thing, Chris White telling me how to approach the ball
