Tug of War

Last weekend was my dad's company picnic. It was full of good food, games for kids, raffle drawings, and flies, lots of flies. Toward the end of the picnic, the apprentices challenged the journeymen to a game of tug of war. My dad being a journeyman joined the journeymen's side. A very large group of people, myself included, stood waiting and watching. The woman standing in front of me had her camera out ready to "Get a picture when they fall," pointing her camera in the direction of the journeymen. The war began and no more than a minute passed and the apprentices were tumbling like dominoes. As soon as they stood up and dusted themselves off, they were calling for another game. I think since they were the ones who challenged, I figure they wanted their pride back.
