The Perks of Being 6'4"

On the way to John's and my apartment from the Dean's, we always pass a park with some play equipment and a good sized basketball court.  For the past week or so, with temperatures finally getting up into the high teens and twenties, I've seen some high school aged guys playing basketball in the afternoon.  I've wanted to play every time I walk by, and today, I finally asked them if I could.  It was around fifteen degrees outside, but with the sun, it wasn't terrible.  They were all pretty short, so when I came up, they were fascinated with me.  We started playing some three-on-three.  The team that won stayed on the court and played the other team, so my team played the whole time.  They were pretty fascinated when I dunked, and I think that we all had a lot of fun.  I was able to speak some Mongolian and when I left, they all said "see ya!".  It was a good opportunity to get out and exercise, plus I think it opened a really great door.  Hopefully, I will be able to invite them to church some time.
