    I'll second that! Wood lanes take a LOT of maintenance and care.

It is good roads all the way, except for the Rope, swing bridge that holds one car at a time leading into town. You also have to check your guns in at the edge of town! The Sheriff keeps them while in town bowling!

    Plattsburg is a step back into time, and reminds Iceman of the Wild West!! Lots of Old houses and history!

    REMEMBER,,, no website, and closed during the week in the summer! Only way I can communicate leave a message on answering machine, that they check on Friday of each week at opening around 6pm.
    I hope you live in northern KC, because Plattsburg is north of Lawson, and that's a distance.

    ITs like 35 miles I believe?? Nothing in comparison to the distance of our nearest star! ( I want to bowl with guys that bowl for the LOVE OF SPORT, not MONEY!! Cheap league bowling, where the winner gets a picture of his team posted on the wall of fame!

    ICEMAN LIKES THE IDEA OF BOWLING for the SPORT, not the money! MONEY is what bring on all the sandbaggers, and scum-bag-rats!!

    ICEMAN would like to find a group of bowlers from the city to take on these honorable country boys! They have some darn good bowlers there in Plattsburg!!! They love their wood lanes,,,, and think city boys play the easy stuff!

    I am hopping Geneo2u and Mary will be going there with Ice and wife this weekend,,, I know I am going!! Saturday at 6pm,,, anyone else want to join us? Bring your own treats and beer.... only thing They really want you to purchase is soft drinks form their soda fountain.
    Don't walk on Thin Ice!
