Had a great day playing board games!

We started the day with our final game of Ticket to Ride Legacy. It was fun! My wife and I ended up tying for third/fourth of five. It was a good time. The game had it's issues, but overall, it was entertaining.

We also played another game of Harmonies. We've been a bit obsessed with this little gem. It's a head scratcher, and we're constantly groaning about our hasty tile placements. It's great!

We finished the night with Fromage. It took some work to learn it, but once we got playing, it just flew by. It was so much fun! And the simple little time keeping mechanic was pretty clever. This one is great and I can't wait to play it again!

#Introduction (2)

Support #WomensRugby (#HarlequinsWomen and the #RedRoses), and - for my sins - #Pompey and #England #Football.

Love #BoardGames (#Carcassonne, #QuacksOfQuedlinberg, #TicketToRide) and #Wargaming (#BloodBowl, #MoonStone, #Oathmark, #BurrowsAndBadgers).

Trying to get back into #Running after an achilles injury and love a long #Walk or two. #Walking usually involves a #Pub since I love my #Beer and #RealAle.

Looking forward to interacting with you lovely folks in 2025.

How do you all feel about #tattoos ? I know it was (is?) still a no-no in #judaism but it seems like that is changing, especially with more secular Jews.

I say tattoos are fine (I don't judge), but especially if they show an appreciation for this life or if they're a path to healing.

After all, Judaism is distinctly focused on this life, instead of an afterlife.

My tattoo is based on this story:
1. I did something good. I am firmly of the belief G-d would approve.

2. After I called out a few people on their wrongdoing, I was traumatically villified by those people. It was extremely traumatic. Therapy has been helpful but we never fully heal - only learn to live with things.

3. Part of that healing of that was playing a lot of #tickettoride (yes, the board game) with the people I love. Family and friends.

So I have a locomotive to symbolize healing, moving forward, power to continue, plus a semicolon tucked in there for mental health awareness.

How about you all?

Had a 4-player game of Ticket to Ride Old West tonight. Definitely a different experience than when we had 2 players starting on completely opposite sides of the board. Claiming a city had big impacts this time, and the deciding factor on the victory was the bonus for most completed routes.
