[quote=Anonymous]We played hearts, gin rummy, crazy 8s and pinochle. My grandparents would brag to their friends that we knew how to play pinochle, but I haven't played since I was maybe 10 or 11 and can't remember. I did really enjoy it! We played another game whose name I can't remember, but I think it was similar to canasta. We spent a week or 2 with my grandparents every summer, and they'd set the card table up in the living room before we arrived. I still have the card box filled with cards that we'd use. The cards are well worn and smell like their house, even now 30+ years later. I have some really wonderful memories playing cards with my grandparents. They were patient and kind and taught me how to lose graciously, all by example. [/quote]
