I couldn't do this if I walked down the lane and knocked 'em over with my hands...
Esther Medley of Centralia is legally blind, but when she bowls she can glimpse a bit of the floor to line up with the lane.Ninety four years old? Legally blind? Bowling 244?Medley, 94, can't see straight ahead, so her 86-year-old husband Ralph tells her which pins are left after her first ball.
That's how Medley recently bowled a score of 244, which included eight strikes, at Fairway Lanes in Centralia. It was the second-highest score of the year for her league.
The Medleys have been bowling in the senior league since 1979.
Must've been the Little Friskies.
