Alphabet Game

[d's girl]

First Category: Things to do with the outdoors.

First person posts a word that begins with "A", next person posts a word that begins with "B" & so on.

The person who posts the "Z" word comes up with a new category & begins it with a "A" word.

TWIST THROWN IN ON 9/9/10: We're on a category that begins w/an "A" - how about we start choosing categories alphabetically? So the next person who posts the "Z" answer chooses a new category that begins w/"B". '-)
