Lord of the Rings Group: Mar. 26/10

This group gathers at least once a year c. March 25 (the day the One Ring was destroyed in Tolkien's trilogy).

This was taken before I got my bifocals.




A sidenote to this evening: Ruth was already considering joining our Friday Night Hockey icetime that night, but (besides whatever other factors were on her mind), there would be the awkwardness of being the only woman there.

When I arrived at Chapter's for this mtg, I ran into Shannon, who had often voiced her intention to join us, but hadn't done so yet. I urged her to come that night as that way it would be easier for both of them.

It also made it easier for Bevans who picks the teams, since that way he could simply assign one woman per team and assume that they were roughly equal in skill. They both played well (as I knew they would), Ruth on an injured ankle! In the following weeks the guys would ask when they were coming back.

Someday soon, I hope.

It was also fun to travel to the rink and back in Ruth's big black truck, rather than my usual little black car.
