Sunday 1-26-25 Sundancers Plus Workshop, Pinball Cabinet & Games

 

Overcast Day

We had a dreary day. It was overcast and misted now and than. Larry woke up about 6:00 and it was 50 degrees. The temperature dropped to 40 degrees at 9:00. It stayed in the 40s all day and at 6:00 it was 50 degrees. We hung around the house.

Larry continued working on putting the mini pinball cabinet back together. He got it running but there is a problem and it crashes. Tomorrow he'll try to figure out the problem. 

I did the Daily Challenges in Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Two Game Tango of 20 games (10 Pyramid and 10 Tri Peaks). It took me 1 hour, 38 minutes and 25 seconds, which put me in 14th place in my group. Then I played Angry Birds.

I worked out on the Wii Fit for 45 minutes. I did Synth Riders for 30 minutes.

 

Working out

In Bounce Arcade I played Pirate's Plunder three times. The third game was the best I earned a silver trophy and fought my enemies three time and defeated them two times. This earned me two skulls flags. I played the game for 20 minutes.

Today I started a new pinball weekly challenge, which is Red & Ted's Road Show. We already have the game. Tomorrow Larry will change the balls from five balls to three balls. Before last week's challenge of Tron was over I decided to play it. I didn't get a new high score but I came close. I came in 23rd place out of 72 participants. There were five of us playing Tron in VR. Usually I'm the only VR player. I played Attack From Mars and had fun.

In the evening we went to Sun City to attend the Sundancers' Weekly Plus Dance. At the moment the dance is really the completion of lessons for the plus class. Gary worked on Diamonds and different types of diamonds (left, right, facing diamonds), Flipped/Cut the diamond, Spin Chain the Gears and Spin Chain and Exchange the Gears. It was basically all teaching the moves but it was fun. We had three squares and a couple sitting out. Gary did a great job of teaching. We sat out a tip and I danced with Pete a couple of times. We have noticed that the new plus dancers are getting better, because of the Sundays dances the students are getting more floor time. Gary has been teaching them at the Monday night dance and Sunday night dances. The dance starts at 6:00 and ends at 7:45, which gets us home between 8:30 and 9:00.

When we got home I finished doing my 18,000 steps. This put me in fifth place in my group for the week with 126,394 steps. We watched the last episode of the fourth season of Elementary. When Larry went to bed I watched National Treasures from our movies collection.
