Senior non-contact sports

Carmen and I have just got back from a much delayed and much deserved vacation. 3 weeks in Florida, Camping in the camper on Perdido Bay outside Pensacola. Inasmuch as we both are near fatal type "A's", I decided that in order to keep us entertained, and also tone us up, I would invent a new senior sport. I called it "sitting". We both mastered the basic structure of the sport within about 2 days, whereupon I added an additional facet to this new sport, "rocking". In short order we both had mastered this difficult aspect of the sport. However, I have mastered the next step, while Carmen is still having difficulty with the third level, "yawning". I have even began to step out boldly onto the pinnicale of the sport, "nodding off". When you have mastered this level, you are truly into this new sport!!!
