Powerball what would you do?

Depending on the amount.....

1. the obvious - pay off any debt by us and family
2. buy a certain family-owned resort in Gilford and make it OUR family-owned spot for family and close friends, including the launch ramp (my brother mentioned this dream last summer)
3. purchase some prime spots on the mainland and/or island property and set it up so said land can never be developed (a pipe dream, for sure -- but since this is a wish list....)
4. buy small log cabin out west near a ski area and a small place in the Carribean -- nothing over the top needed, just a nice little spot with a view and access to the local amenities
5. buy one of the Adirondack style BIG homes at the mouth of Minge Cove -- I have to do at least one thing BIG
6. buy a boat for the lake -- large enough to have a head and small kitchen, but nothing that stands out too much
7. bring our immediate family members on a cruise or vacation somewhere warm

I'd keep my job for a while to keep my sanity. No new cars, no new Hummers, etc.

It's nice to dream.
