Last week one of Zack’s friends was celebrating a birthday, so Zack treated him to an evening of pinball at a local arcade. Today he talked me and Pepper into stopping by, and we had a grand time. It’s been many years since I last played pinball, but it’s still as fun as I remember. They even had a copy of Addams Family, one of my favorites and a well-known classic.
Here’s a shot of Pepper playing Indiana Jones while Zack tackles a bit of Star Trek.
It’s basically a “nickel arcade” where you can play pinball and video games and air hockey and shoot baskets and all that sort of stuff for a few nickels apiece. I mostly played pinball, where each game cost a quarter, and it seemed like a great deal.
The best part: it’s about a five-minute drive from the Villa. Obviously when we go down to Utah to visit our kids in the future, we’ll always need to hit the arcade.
