Men being Men


You might wonder to yourself, hmmm is that Chris in long pants, and a long sleeve shirt, well you would be right. Paintball might be one of the ONLY reasons you will find me in a long sleeve shirt. I figured a little extra sweat was better that the pain, and bruising associated with a plastic ball of paint being hurled out of a air gun at 150 mph. After playing in the woods coarse, we tried our hand at the speed coarse. Speed not being one of my attributes was a definant disadvantage to me, as seen by the orange paint on my sleeve. We have come to the conclusion that Alec was able to hide better than the rest of us, but his aim had a lot to be desired. Jason, although surprisingly nimble couldn't hide behind anything smaller than a door. Then there was Granddad......"Just being with my boys" is what he kept saying as another ball of paint nailed him in the neck...a lot of prayers went up that day from the old man.
