Lay of the Land

  This was a very good reading. I do not like to read and I enjoyed this reading. It didn’t put me to sleep or make me dread having to read it. The way the author explained everything was very helpful with keeping my attention. There were great details that I enjoyed. The way the author explained the men that were bowling on the bowling league teams. What the men were doing, how the men were talking, what tone of voice the men had, what they were wearing, and so on. All that detail and description was great and well thought out. 

  I especially like how she assumed one of the men liked wrestling and would probably be going home to watch wrestling after bowling. Then I thought she would forget to mention him again but she did towards the end of the reading.That kind of made me happy.The description used in the reading was useful. Also the description of what the bowling alley looked like, was good. It made me feel as though I was at the bowling alley. From the start of he writing until the end of the writing I felt as though I was at the bowling alley. This was interesting to me. 

This is Kings Bowling Billiards & Lounge in Boston. It is a more uptempo bowling alley, than the one in the reading. I want to visit it one day, it is 21 plus. This reading made me think about how much I'm dying to go to this place.
