Nowata, Oklahoma - Bowling Ball Fence After he retired in May 2006, Chris Barbee decorated 80 feet of his fence with bowling balls and bowling ball accessories. He has also made some religious icons out of bowling balls. Chris is always looking for new sculpture ideas. You can bring him your bowling balls and pins to add to his objets d'art. A friend of mine is his daughter, and she just knew I was the right person with whom to share this gem. [scott laman, 01/13/2007][RA: Barbee plans to make a bowling ball Rosary as soon as he gets his hands on 40 black bowling balls. Jan 2007: Chris's daughter Elaine writes: "He now has the black bowling balls he needs to finish the Rosary. He is still taking donations of used bowling balls to incorporate into other pieces. Per Chris; 'If I'm not home, they can kick the balls out into my yard. I'll find 'em!'"]
