Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of Louisiana Bowl for Breath

This weekend, I headed south to Houma for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of Louisiana's Bowl for Breath. Of course, my best friend, Millie, was with me, and we formed TEAM INJURY -- named mainly for back problems & Millie's shoulder issues. Neither of us had bowled in years, and we were overjoyed to take the opportunity to re-introduce ourselves to this past time, as well as yummy bowling alley food, all while supporting CFF-LA. Needless to say, we weren't winning any bowling awards; however, I will absolutely return next year to take part in this wonderful event! The people of the Houma area produce an exceptional event compete with bowling, raffles, scavenger hunts, and more! So, mark your calendar for the first Saturday in December 2010 and join us in Houma at Creole Lanes to support the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. This is such an incredible organization, and you can learn more by visiting www.cff.org.
