  13. I've always wanted to learn how to play chess, but I always got intimidated by it. Guess I'll just stick with checkers. LOL!

    Happy WW! My Wordless Wednesday

  14. I don't play chess. My son is a good player. Just yesterday he was asking me for a crystal set while out shopping. It's too expensive for a kid.
