My talented Daddy (builder of the hearth bench and the barnyard stool)
made a beautiful, heirloom chess board for our family for Christmas.
On his last visit he brought me a little matching
box he had built...
to hold the chess pieces.
The chess board is getting a lot of use this summer!
My son and I decided to start a summer long chess match.
Every time we finish a game, we just start another
and play whenever we both have time.
Nine games in so far...
I'm down by one game.
He's good.
He's been good for awhile. :-)
That is so beautiful Laurie. What a family heirloom! I don't play chess but David does, and I think he is pretty good at it too. My brother gave me a chess table that my Daddy built in his high school shop class. I treasure it! It is currently being restored, and I can't wait to get it back!
ReplyDeleteThat's great Kerri! We have so many things in common. :-)
