A healthy retiree discovers Lawn Bowls, a sport he can compete in for 20 years!
After 12 years of playing year-round, he tells what seems to work. What doesn't. What can be changed quickly; what slowly, and what must be apparently left to chance.

Coronavirus Pandemic Update
James Gardens LBC Toronto 2020
My wife and I are Canadians. The Canadian government has
called on all Canadians wintering overseas to come home because of the
Coronavirus-19 pandemic. We have booked a flight scheduled to leave Portugal
tomorrow rather than at the end of March as originally planned. This is good advice.
Commercial airlines may soon stop flying. Many may declare bankruptcy!
On the
other hand, travelling in planes and passing through airports involves much
closer proximity to other people than staying in our Portuguese rented condo
and occasionally visiting the grocery store, pharmacy, and gas station. We are choosing
to travel because this emergency could last many months. If we do get sick we will need
friends who can leave stuff outside our living quarters. Community support is
critical for everyone at this time. Bowlers- take this seriously. There will be a shortage of
critical care equipment world-wide. Health professionals are going to become
infected or exhausted. Our bowling community had better keep communicating.
Check on your friends and acquaintances from the club. Your actions can save
people you know. Laxity can kill people you know! I have faith in you! Good luck.
