9th Inning and only 2 outs to go for the win so the OG Countertop gets the nod to bring us home!!!

2-3 MOM and it’s GAME OVER and the crowd goes wild……

Skin of Mole:

Great work by all today.  YHC and CT had an unconventional idea for today’s workout that I think everyone really enjoyed.  The site of Outland is young based on the calendar but the regular attending PAX is not.  Therefore, we came up with the idea of a potluck Q scenario and asked all in attendance to lead a segment. 

This wasn’t only to challenge their physical state but their leadership and mental state.  All are more than physically capable and this not only proved encouragement but proved leadership amongst the ranks.  As soon as Double EE took the reigns for inning 3 though, CT and Z were 2nd guessing and wondering if we’d asked more than we bargained for.  Lead hard and go hard for 6 minutes or so only to have the PAX follow direction, well the set up definitlely initiated an extremely competetive environment to see who could out do whom when on the mound.  Those of us at the plate simply had to eat the energy and servings of downpainment they had to offer.  Although hearty, I’ll say that it wasn’t very tasty.

What really wasn’t tasty was the end of the 8th inning where we sent The Late Show to the showers and brought in CT who called a quick mosey only to hear Boondock call out “My daddy’s over there puking, should I go and get him?”….  The Horse w/ Head caught up and explained he needed some water back at his vehicle; however, I’m almost willing to bet anyone that Boondock was spraying out spilled merlot out the back of daddy’s truck back at the house after that comment.

Honestly, GREAT GREAT GREAT work by all today and way to stand up and LEAD!!!

Until next time:  “Z” is OUT
