We had a nice visit earlier in December by our good Delaware friends, Dana and Bill. It was so great to see them. They were able to stay for a long weekend, so we got to see lots of fun sites and do lots of fun things.
Here is Mike actually playing the banjo (which he doesn't do nearly enough :)
Daner and Bill at the Boatyard.
So we went to this restaurant, The Boatyard Grill, just for some drinks and appetizers and stumbled upon a fun bet that was underway. We went there in the middle of the afternoon, so they were very slow. As we walked in, all the staff were just sitting around the bar and proceeded to tell us that we arrived at the most perfect time. They were going to bet one of the workers to jump into the Cayuga lake inlet for $100 - and we were welcomed to watch!
This was so crazy because of course it was a freezing day - like teens - and the water had been frozen over. It was pretty funny - and what do you know, I just happened to have my camera on me (I know - what a huge surprise!)
So as you can see, it was pretty funny. The people who put down money were actually a little upset because he didn't completely submerge himself, but I think he eventually got paid. Oh yeah, and to congratulate him on going through with it, they proceeded to lock him outside for a few minutes afterwards - ha!
