Sunday, Sunday, Sunday! Truck and Boat Pull

About once a month we try and get all the staff together and head down to the lake for a little fun and relaxation. We’ve got all kinds of activities going on here. We’ve got a tube that pulls you behind a boat and beats the crap out of you legs , we’ve got footballs and frisbees to throw around, and if you’re really lucky you might get to see a truck and boat pull.
So this clearly looks like it was a bad idea to begin with. Well, yes and no. You see when we’re not out on the boat we just pull it up on shore to our spot and just hangout. So when it was time to go no one really wanted to drive the boat, truck, and trailer up to the loading dock so we decided to just load the boat right where everything was. Just about everything inside of me knew Niel was going to get stuck but I figure if he needed a tow that’s what my truck was for. Well, soon enough Niel’s tires started spinning it was time for the White Lady to come to the rescue. To my suprise and dismay it only took a little bit of gas and I pulled both the truck and boat right out.
The question is since it was so easy to get everything out with both cars should we do it again next time…. I say no, Niel says yes. I’ll let you know how it goes.
