A couple more flash games for ya… I love ‘em, but usually tire of them quickly.
I’m still working on these 2 though.

The links will open in a new window.

I can’t seem to post anything lately!
It all started with trying to upgrade our home computer. It has gotten slower and slower and the racket it would make!
