Flashback Friday

 

I was looking for something in the closet in the back bedroom, and found Gram's leather dice cup.  I wish I had a dollar for every game of Yahtzee that she and our neighbor Alice played using that cup.  I remember the Old Man bought it for them to use when the chintzy cardboard dice cup that came with the game wore out.  

Every week night evening after supper, Alice would come down and would play Yahtzee with Gram and Grandpa.  After Grandpa died, they kept up the nightly Yahtzee game, even though there were only two people playing.  

I know people still play Yahtzee today from all of the ads I see for apps for the game.  But there's just something extra cool about the sound of the dice.
