Summer Vacation is now over, but I thought I would share a few of my indoor summer traditions - in addition to the outdoor ones of biking to the lake, going for walks, kayaking, getting soaked at Twin Falls, and hiking the mountain.
There are the variety of card games and other games to be played. Pictured above is nerts with cousins while below is Hand and Foot with different relatives. In addition I played numerous rounds of 99, crib, and backgammon with dad. He usually won the crib so we would play 99 afterwards so that I could redeem myself.
Puzzles are also an important part of any vacation or extra bit of time off. Doing one with other people makes it better. (Maybe that is what I should do with my time off school)
And of course there is always time for a good novel - or several - over the course of vacation. They are also excellent ways to pass the time while traveling from one destination to another.
I miss vacation!
