This is SO exciting.<br /><br />Anyone want to come to camp with us next year?<br /><br />OR, maybe we should just build our own 'ostrich trough' and have some sort of ice carpet ball tourney to make February exciting here in Nebraska. <br /><br />Somehow, when the heat index is 115' like today, February doesn't seem so bad. . .Holliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05045545027781003312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640569598443915507.post-89949160538820404852010-08-03T20:52:57.558-05:002010-08-03T20:52:57.558-05:00I guess I should be more specific than "B&quo...I guess I should be more specific than "B" for a last name!Rachel Baltenspergernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640569598443915507.post-57314724919444215462010-08-03T20:51:15.093-05:002010-08-03T20:51:15.093-05:00We also had that game at the camp we went to growi...We also had that game at the camp we went to growing up. We loved it SO much that one year, my sisters and brother and I built one. It sits on our front porch to this day and even after all these years it still gets played a lot! We have gotten sooo many questions from visitors when they drive down the driveway and see it. Most think it is a trough of some sort. We finally resorted to jokingly saying that it was our ostrich trough that we keep on the porch. LOL Then we invite them to a game and win another carpet ball convert.Rachel Bnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640569598443915507.post-90691608989758263352010-08-03T18:05:30.116-05:002010-08-03T18:05:30.116-05:00We had that game at CYIA last year.

My dad works at a university, and calls the students kids and it got passed down.
