Neglected bag

I have this supercool bowling ball bag. I got it at a thrift store, and the lady at the check stand was like "Oh, I wish I woulda seen that first!"

I don't really have a bowling ball, but apparently people who have their own ball, have a bag to carry it in. It makes sense.

This bag is so cool - it's so strong - it has a solid base with four little metal feet and the material is vinyl coated with a plaid material. Some of it has given way to age, but even the zipper still works if you want it closed. Somewhere out there is a key for that lock.

You can see I'm a Seattle Storm fan (Seattle's women basketball team), because the identity tag on the bag is a piece of fan swag.











You can see I'm a Trekkie cuz the sticker on the tag has the Enterprise on it. I just noticed that under Name: it says Lytha. Tja, that's me: )











The other side of the bag shows that it rode over on the Boeing 747 cargo plane with me and my horse, because all crew members had to place tags on their bags. I felt pretty cool getting a "CREW" tag. I think maybe Lisa at Laughing Orca has had a lot of crew tags on her stuff.

Anyway, the point of this bag --- I used it for several years to carry my riding clothes to the barn. On riding days, I'd put my boots, breeches, and tshirt in this bag, and put it in my Civic for after-work riding. Even when I came to Germany, I had the bag for changing from riding clothes to work clothes. No more. Those days are over.

My horse is home. My closet is my bowling ball bag.

I still love this bag. It needs a job. But the pleasure of not needing it it so great!
