Since I have a UW theme going, today I’ll cover U-dubopoly.

Grama Bunnie and Grampa Rod made the long trek south to watch Xander get creamed in a soccer game this morning. The weather was so gorgeous that we had to be outside after lunch.

The kids soaked themselves on the trampoline for awhile, then we settled in to a long game of monopoly. G&G don’t have a strong grasp of the game or a familiarity with the sites on campus, but they understand negotiating for properties. Grampa quickly became poor and Grama accumulated way more real estate than the rest of us, even with Xander trying to buy everything away from us at $10 over market value.

I have never played another Monopoly version. I love the quote you used.
