I did a pretty good job of keeping paintball on the down low while I took some time off from the field this past week. I wish I could say I took a vacation but when time off includes obligations it really can't be considered a vacation. I did take a quick peek through the phone book when I reached my destination in NY. Not much in the way of fields or pro-shops listed. I know there's a field somewhere close by because Orange County Chopper (just down the road) did a segment awhile back where they took some time off and played.

On the drive out I spotted a couple of fields of the paintball variety. Driving back I saw "Play Paintball" painted in big white letters across the side of a barn. No phone number. Just Play Paintball. I should have taken a picture. I tried not to think about the spool field that is in need of repair or the fruitless quest for a new gun to replace our rental fleet. I did call and check in a couple of times. Once to let my daughter know I arrived safely and another time to find out how the team did in a local tournament (They finished 1st!).

All in all it was a fairly "paintless" couple of days off. Now it's back to work.
