YHC was the only show for a solo standard of 2 slowish miles…6 miles, sprinting the whole time, up-hill both ways, pulling my car. 7 PAX and 2 pooches Braved the Gloom on a chilly but dry morning. There was some miss-Q-munication as both Bag Boy and I thought we had Q duties this morning. He graciously abdicated the duties to me, and in return, I called him by the wrong name when we got to Mary (doh!). So with the Q duties settled, we got to work.

MOLESKIN:
Today was a great morning. I mentioned in my Pre-blast that technical difficulties prevented me from posting Monday (turns out your phone doesn’t charge if you don’t plug it in…who knew?), and some work traveling will keep me away at least Wednesday & Thursday, so I asked for some PAX to help me pack a week of work into one beatdown. All 7 PAX delivered (Including Bunyan in a walking running boot!!) brought their all today, without any complaining (well without too much complaining!). Thanks men.
Bag Boy, thanks for letting me take the reins, sorry about the mix-up and the name fumble, thanks for adding some pain to the Mary.
Announcements were about Operation Sweet Tooth, March 30th, great event, great cause and definitely worthy of your time so please go ahead and sign up!
YHC also shamelessly plugged Saturday March 9th at the Estate. YHC has the Q and more importantly YHC will be taking over MQ duties from Turnpike. So, come on out for the passing of the shovel flag, will also be passing on a copy of Freed to Lead to an interested PAX. (There may even be some light refreshments afterwards…Show to Know!).
