Busy weekend

A whole bunch of distant relatives came and played with us this weekend. That was a lot of fun. We really learned a lot and so did Uncle Jeff.

We are fast! We slide and slide and slide. That spa trip made such a difference. We slide a lot easier and if you throw us too hard we go slamming into the other end. When we bump into each other we going flying everywhere. Those fuzzy things you wave in front of us really make us go far. We also like to bend and curve. If you throw us hard we go pretty straight. If you throw us just right so we stop in those pretty circles we bend and bend and bend.

The other thing we learned is we need to spin. When you grab our hats and throw us, make sure you spin us. If you don't spin us right we just kind of find our own path to follow.

Editor's note: The rocks are faster and have late finish. They also have a lot of glide and do not dig in and stop. Late finish means they curl hard as they are slowing down on draws. Takeouts will be pretty straight. Need good rotation on the rock, 2 1/2 turns. The rocks and ice are also unforgiving. A rock released with outward momentum with continue to slide outward.

Can't wait for all of you to try us out.
