Taking Turns

Event Date

Jul 18, 2023

AO


5 pax posted to Fallout on what seemed to be a slightly cooler (but still quite balmy) morning.

Drebin, Gambini, Jenny, and YHC took off on an easy mosey around the AO when a fifth, slightly late arriving car pulled into the parking lot.  The pax correctly identified it as belonging to Snake Eyes, and out he popped to join us at the end of our mosey.

Moleskin:

  • Thank you to the pax for taking turns calling cadence this morning.  YHC was hoping to give any pax who could use it an opportunity to get some cadence practice in, but so happens that all pax in attendance this morning were seasoned pax who needed no practice.  Still, great to pass it around, and I inevitably learn new exercises from the pax, which I always enjoy.  Drebin in particular called a few I’d not done before.  The only negative for YHC was that I was always the timer when Jenny was calling cadence, so never got to hear what he called.
  • TClaps to Snake Eyes for continuing to show up and gut out beatdowns while being dinged up.  You’re a machine, and inspire YHC to get out of the fartsack – I’ve got no excuse.  Thanks, brother.
  • Thanks to Gambini for letting YHC lead the pax this morning.  I’m in between vacations this week, still on West coast time, and needed to sign up for accountability’s sake.  Going to try to post tomorrow as well.
  • We lifted up Blackbeard in prayer.  If you’ve not done so, please give this man a shout and let him know that he is missed and in our thoughts.  Prayers for healing and look forward to when we are able to lock arms again.
  • Gambini’s hat is in the ring for Huntersville town commissioner: https://www.facebook.com/electericrowell.  Please read up , and if so inclined, give a like and help spread the word.
  • Thanks as always to Auto and Eeyore for the EH in June 2016 – I’m forever grateful.

Aye,

TC
