We have a new answer to the question of where we want to be when we’re 90: we now officially want to be just like Millie Sullens.
Millie, a 90-year-old great-grandmother, has made headlines around the world for her amazing skill at water-skiing. Yes, you read that correctly!
Millie, who doesn’t even need her hands to stay balanced on the ski, began water-skiing at the age of 34 and developed a passion and talent for the sport over the bones of 60 years.
In an interview with local news station 5 News Online, Millie explained her love of the sport: “It’s like you’ve got the whole world by yourself, and when you get a new skier you live that same thing.”
Millie also went on to share some pretty amazing advice that works just as well for life in general, as it does for water-skiing: “Go for it! If you fall, get up and go again. It’s no fun sitting at home in a rocking chair!”
In between her own sessions out on the water, Millie now enjoys passing on her love of the sport to her great-grandchildren.

What an inspirational woman!
