The “G’s” Frisbee Times By Evan Anderson

So we, the “G’s”, LOVE our Frisbee, no lie and no denying that, anytime, anywhere, or any weather, nothing gets us in the mood to not throw a circular spinning object through the air. During our expedition, we probably spent more time with a Frisbee than doing anything else. We might have played football more, but it’s hard to use a football when someone in our group named A.C. Berry, kicked it into a tree and got it stuck. Even the strongest winds won’t blow it out of its roost, so we stuck to Frisbee. Not even the miserable rains that usually keep everyone indoors kept us at bay. We would just throw on our rain gear and keep playing! Sadly however, one of the Frisbees cracked against a rock out on the beach, BUT, luckily, Derrick, one of the staff brought a Frisbee he found back home with him. He also made up a game or at least told us about this game, called hole in one. The point of the game is, you get a bunch of people to play and the first person chooses a spot to throw from, and also a target. The first person who hits the target first goes to the spot they just hit (along with everyone else), and that becomes the spot you throw from and the person who hit the last target gets to choose a new target for everyone to hit. And you keep doing that till everyone gets sick of it (no one ever did). The best place we played Frisbee, was at the beach in Carpenteria, near Ventura California. Reason being was that there was really no restriction to how far we could throw. So me, Ben, Wes and Derrick would throw the Frisbee incredibly far down the beach! Another good place was on Santa Cruz Island; near our campsite was a rather large gravel area with a road running along side it. There is so much more to write about but that would literally take forever! But from what you just read, you can probably tell that we love our Frisbee, told you I wasn’t lying.
