Good old fashioned Tug of War (our fun planned for tomorrow)

There's a "Tug of War" event going on tomorrow that we'll be going to and if the weather isn't too horrible it will be a blast!! Do you guys know what a tug of war is?? If you do, there is a little twist on this one, it's across the water with the opposing tugging teams on either side!!

Here's the link to the event, http://www.themre.org/tug2008/index.html it will explain more and you'll see exactly what we'll be doing, Mike may even get in on being a "tugger" LOL! Alot of the proceeds from the event will go to Aaralyn's school 😀

This has been going on for many years, even though Eastport is actually part of the city of Annapolis, the Eastportians (myself being one now 😀 ) want Eastport to be it's own little city, The Maritime Republic of Eastport vs Annapolis, it's an ongoing humorous rival going way back.

here's a link that has a little history about it if you're interested

I remember doing tug of war as a kid but I can't remember why lol 😊

Have fun, sounds like good laugh 😀

It should be a good time.... it's raining out now but hopefully will let up soon. I'm gonna go look at the weather channel forcast and see what's up!

i did that once, we extended the rope over a river, ok so i got wet!!!!

I never took part in again!

LOL, I would have like to seen that Lucy!!

this one is going to be a 1700 foot rope across a big creek!

That sounds like great fun tammy! 😀 You guys will have a ball if the weather holds up and its such a fun way to raise funds too. I hope mike doesn't get too wet! lol Xx

Tug-o-war is a big thing up here, we have teams who have made the Birtish championships 🙂

Sounds like it is a good day you have planned, hope the weather held up for you. 😀

Yep, it turned out to be a great afternoon weather and other wise... just uploading some pics and video now 😉

No one got wet, darn it!! and my side (Eastport) lost, I think we got 2 of the 6 tugs they did and Annapolis won the rest of them 😛 It was all in good fun though. Mike didn't get to pull because they already had the teams established. He's still down there LOL, Ren and the kids and I came back a little bit ago (she didn't end up working so she went with us too!)

I'll post some pics in a little bit....

Sounds like great fun hun! 😀 Shame no-one got wet tho! lol Look forward to the pics! Xx

😀 PHOTOS PHOTOS 😀

Hurry up Tammy!!!!!

Soon as I get the kid's belly filled up I'll post the pics... Mikey's so funny, he was (so he thought) taking pics of Aaralyn and I dancing and I had taken a video of her just before that so there's about 5 little mini movies a millisecond long to upload, doing it to have the images for pictures though otherwise I would've deleted them ;), he had no idea it was on the video taker...
