My first time paintball in at least 10 years!

♪ I ain't as good as I once was . I got a few years on me now ♬♪....

I say that to say this, I was once very athletic and having served 12 years active military (4 years USMC and 8 years US Army) I would like to think I could hold my own in most events of a physical nature.

But....

Since I have separated from the military and have gotten accustomed to civilian life I have gotten quite large and soft.

Anyhow, my leadership team at work (more on that in the future, as I divulge more about my personal life) arranged for the leadmen and up to play paintball. I was invited and accepted as I love any type of team building activity and/or opportunity to network and build relationships with seniors. Today we played paintball at glory paintball.

This is a photo of me with a face mask on. You can notice a large black beard with grey highlights as well!

Overall we had a great time and had fun. We also bonded together outside of work which we do not get to do enough. Some of our violence was directed in a healthy way as well. Those who may have had some friction in the past got to express it and act upon it today. Here is what someone thought of me.

Until next time please make time to be a better self... Even if it is just a little each day.
