I will start with the end.

Upon exiting NM Park and heading on the sidewalk in front of Christ Community church, we spotted a rather fluffy skunk.  As a normal person would, I halted the pax to avoid a smelly interaction.  Possum was having none of that, thinking it was merely a furry turtle tried to run after it.  Fortunately he heard the plaintive advice of her peers and adjusted his direction back to home base where we wrapped up the workout.

Oh, and we moseyed throughout the MTB trails for approximately 30 minutes as promised.  Many had never been on those trails even after dozens and dozens of posts.

thanks boys.
