The lady in Red is a friend of ours who is 86 years old and sharp as a tack. She invited my husband and me to dinner today. She too loves to play Scrabble. This picture was taken with self-timer. I did not have my tripod along so set the camera on her mantle. My husband also played with us but he did not get on this picture.

Wish I could be there to play along with you. Scrabble and Crossword puzzles...that's me! The first thing I noticed was the dial telephone!

The total score was surprising, Joerg.. For the first time in the last few years that my husband and I have played the game together we tied with a score of 248 and Florence got 188.

This photo is full of fun. The surroundings take me back a few years to when I used to play Scrabble with my mother.

Hey, we used to have a yellow wall phone in the house I grew up in! Honestly, this is a very nice photo. You and your friend look like you are very relaxed and having fun. Who won?

My hubby and I tied with a score of 248 and Florence didn't do badly either with 188. Thanks for asking, Lori.

It is remarkable to catch the right moment with the self-timer. How many shots did you take?

Andrea Petersen gave props (17 Jan 2009):
Thank you all ...In reply to your question William....several shots did not turn out before this one as I did not gage the distance correctly from the mantle to the table and some of the time it would take in part of the mantle..But this last attempt caught the action just right...Quite difficult to not have the tripod with me at the time.
