Great post @jerry banfield!

I have had no friends in Saint Petersburg for a year and a half.

Great pic of you and @lexiconical. It’s always amazing when the rare, kindred spirit shows up in one’s life. Most take friendship for granted; but, 18 months is an example of why we should not take the valuable gift for granted.

Interestingly; both pool and bowling are good forms of low-impact exercise.

It's great to have the bowling gear; because it saves a lot of time when out with friends, searching for the 'never-quite-perfect' fit or weight of bowling ball. Btw, great choice on your selection. And, how apropos the bowling-alley walls reminds one of Steemit's minnows, whales, et al.

Lastly, I continue to glean from your techniques of connecting with your audience; and, not being shy about asking for contributions for the time and energy you put into your posts/videos. I'm reminded that it might gain one new contributor; but, that's one more than the previous number.

Thanks again for this post!

Best regards!

Peace.
