Somerville, The Good Ol Days Playing Dodge Ball

We have upgraded the game since then. The students of games has started a new one called shared streets. The is where we put moveable posts in the middle if the street complete with sign and saw horse signs.  You drive down Jacques Street to be met with these and you drive around them if you can. Since they are moved frequently you just never know where they are going to be next. Sometimes there are none in the street, sometimes 4 or 5. So you just never know. And the best part is now many cars go up the wrong way on Fenwick now a lot since Monday when this started. This is so cool to have a nice game like this in the middle of the street. But I am nostalgic, I still like the old version in the school yard.
