As usual,
a 1-minute conversation has the power to change the course of a night.
A friend Steve donated a chessboard yesterday to the Perich household.
I guess he had built a bunch for a chess tournament,
and this was one of the irregulars.
Way better than the folding cardboard one we had.
Little did he know we had a small collection of chess pieces.
The normal wooden set was handed down from my grandparents,
and the other 60's version an estate sale score.
Crazy stuff huh?
Not as crazy as these guys.

First up was Jakob.
He's always game for a challenge.
I'll let you know,
it is almost more stressful than fun to play against the kids!
Next up was Macey.
This was her first game,
and it always surprises me how good her memory is,
especially with all the moves these pieces have.
Even at 7 she understood her own form of strategy!
Cool to watch.
Yeah I guess she learned it's a brutal game!
