Due to the power outage at the library and across town on Saturday, I lost the crime links I was going to share with you today. Hopefully I can find them again, and I'll post them with Saturday's post.
However, until then, here are a few thoughts to tide you over.
In prepration for the big break-in, Logan Kellerman goes undercover to distract Palomino's nosey neighbor Mr. Mulroney. In order to keep him distracted, Logan gets him to teach him how to play Backgammon. eHow, one of my favorite websites for simple information, was nice enough to post instructions on how to play. With some help from Mom and Dad, they also have instructions on how to make your own personalized board and peices using plywood, paint/leather, clay, and wood glue. You can also draw one out easily on paper with markers and using checker peices.
What are some other "old timey" boardgames you like to play?
One of the other characters, Pitch, enjoys rockclimbing with her family. ITStactical, on YouTube, has posted several videos above climbing and the equipment needed to do it well and most importantly --safely. Here's a link to their Rapelling Equpiment and Set-Up videos, or look at their page for others.
If you find any sites about board games, backgammon, rock climbing, or anything else to do with Swindle, feel free to share in the comments. If you haven't started reading yet, several copies are available at the front desk of the library.
Happy reading!
