Checker Mates

The night or two before we leave on vacation, we usually dine at The Cracker Barrel. It’s not only one of our favorite restaurants, but they also rent audio books for travelers. You can rent a book from any Cracker Barrel and return it to any other location. Since it was a nice evening, Mommy and the boys waited outside after dinner while Daddy searched inside for a good audio book. The boys found fun rocking chairs placed beside an extra large checker board. While they have no idea how the game is played, they did find the game pieces’ size and colors exciting. Sandy hopes a competitive fascination with board games will one day be more popular with the equally matched twins than the idle television viewing.
