wind checkers

[dakids]

Whats everybody using and how much did you pay.

I use milk weed.  The seed pods are forming now.  When they dry out its time to pick a few.  I place them in a ziplock bag and put the bag the bow case.  I use an old film case when i'm in the tree.  Best thing about them is they are FREE!!!!!!!

I saw this post was by DaKids and my first thought was he has found a way to play checkers with his kids using the wind,    I was wrong

Bobby, playing wind checkers is a lot easier than wind chess.

Here is a pic I took of a milk weed plant in the back yard.  Kids planted them for me.
