Croquet

I have a serious competitive streak, but since I am not in the least bit sporty or athletic, it often only comes out in cards, board games and other strange occasions.  I think that is why I love the Olympics so — I can get into the competition, without having to participate (and then lose).

This is also why I love lawn games – athleticism is not a requirement for bocce or croquet, and bonus – they can be done drink in hand.

As we head up to Tahoe with some friends this weekend, I think a little lawn decathlon heptathlon is in order.

Anything else we should add?

Finger’s crossed I win — I may need to add a rosé drinking element, just to ensure I get at least one W by my name.
