Yesterday our whole church staff went to a Lake house for the day. Apparently there are only two things to accomplish at this day away. First, the goal is to spend time together. Second, to win the tug-o-war competition.
As an added bonus this year after lunch we were visited by a 4 ft long water moccasin (that’s a big snake for those of you not from Texas) the snake slithered across the lawn and wrapped itself around a little red wagon. The homeowner who was about a 70 year old man came out of the house with a shotgun. A coupel of staff guys decided to get the snake off the wagon and when they did they thought this guy was going to shoot it. So as they tried to kill the snake with their hoes and rakes they were worried their feet were going to get shot off. That’s why they kept yelling “Don’t shoot.”
