160 more days...

A few posts back (183 more days...) we saw Nana enjoying the rock climbing wall on VOTS.  Nana commented, "At least I can still climb the rock wall.  I'll never be old....."


While I might challenge Nana on both of those claims, it got me thinking.  What fun things might we get the old woman to do, especially if we tempted her with a buck (*).


And so, we begin the mini-series, "Would Nana do it, for a buck?"




WATER SPORTS:










So here's the bet:  If Nana performs any of the following water sports during Operation: Poisson Rouge, I will give her a buck.  Others are welcome to sweeten the pot.

o Water Skiing
o Banana Boating
o Parasailing
o Jet Skiing

Looking forward to enjoying the view from deck 13!

(*) It has come to my attention that those not in the inner circle may not appreciate some of the more subtle points of this blog, such as howling, deux bacon, and in this case the power of a single dollar.  My dear old mother and I love to bet against each other whenever we can.  It is not so much about the money, as it is about TAKING the money.  That much said, you might be surprsised what you can get that old woman to do, for a buck.  Try it sometime...  It's a lot of fun.
