Well after a long time of looking, we finally found a boat that fit our needs and something we could all agree on. We decided on a Tige 22ve and so far it has been a great buy. It is a bit shorter than we wanted, but it still almost doubled our capacity to 14. We have had a lot of fun this summer teaching people how to wake board and trying to improve our own skills. Can’t wait for school to start again...Not!
Business Time did not get into the next ARC league, so we are going to try out Aussie’s this time. Aussie’s is a local restaurant that has a pretty nice sand volleyball court that they host leagues and tournaments at. I am looking forward to it, but we are playing really late. Not so much looking forward to that part. At least it will not be 100 degrees when we play. We just have to not pig out before we play! Razz
Last month me and a few guys I have been playing paintball with made the trip to Wyandotte, OK, to play in the “World’s Largest Paintball Game.” We joined a new unit on the German side not really knowing what to expect. We arrived on a Tuesday after a LONG drive to a muddy field in the middle of nowhere. For me, the first couple of days were not very exciting. By Thursday we had started to bond with our unit and things started to get better. Friday brought a hell of a storm making the place miserable. Several tents were knocked down including our big common area tent, so we just kind of hung out and got to know our unit better. We found A LOT of our unit was either Texan or Canadian. By then we had our squads worked out and had done some basic training for movement and what not. Basically our deal was to hit the enemy hard and fast! By game time Saturday we were a force to be reckoned with. Our first objective was taken in 45 seconds. It was exhilarating plain and simple. We spent the rest of the morning trying to defend one of the “beaches.” I was purely amazed at how many people were out there playing. There were waves upon waves of troops. By the end of the day I was worn down, so I traded my marker for my camera and took as many pictures as I could. While we were thrilled that the German side won, the real joy for me was meeting and playing with the guys from my unit. Who would have thought that Texans and Canadians could get along so well together? MEK…Fkn’A!
I have a boat for sale if yall know anyone looking! Razz
