This morning I woke up with a
memory from elementary school.
I don't know what made me think of it after
all these years.
Our school had two main playgrounds.
I believe there were eight hopscotch outlines on
the playground going south and
six on the playground going east.
Students would sign up to play against one another.
The winner of each set of players would go on
to compete with another winner. T
hose winners would compete and down
the line until only one was left.
