There IS such a thing as a Wide Game! And if you're as interested in this as I am you can Google it and find out many ways of playing it. Among other things, I learned that Girl Scouts play the Wide Game, and I know now that Girl Scout camp was where I played it. It's a kind of treasure hunt hide and seek, always played out in a field after dark, usually with no flashlights. It involves strings worn around the wrists, little pieces of paper (that's what I remember), and other tokens. People hide and capture and free each other and collect tokens. It is amazing fun! Now I know that the charlottes are involved in a Wide Game; and here are two more players. (Also three miniature apples that are on the counter and were a lot quicker and easier to draw at 10 PM than more charlottes.)
a wide game - yes! : )
