I Got a Strike!

Nick Bertrand, age 14
Skyline High School

Once upon a time, a gremlin came to Ann Arbor. This gremlin went to the bowling alley with me. We went to check in our shoes and trade them for bowling shoes. Once we got our shoes, we went to go grab a bowling ball. The gremlin grabbed a money ball, while I grabbed a blue one. We went to the alley lane number twenty-three. The gremlin bowled first. On his very first shot he bowled a strike! Then when I went, I bowled a strike as well. Then the gremlin went to bowl and when he did he got a spare. My turn was up and this shot could make me be ahead. I grabbed my ball and went to bowl. I took a deep breath and bowled my ball down the alley. I got a strike! We had so much fun together and he had a really happy time in Ann Arbor.
