YHC was site FNG today.  Been to the Carolina Ale House once, but failed to do any recon on that occasion.  Can say that the Ale House has a large beer selection and is worthy of a visit.  Tried to Google Earth Waverly yesterday.  The image was at least 6 months old, probably more.  Alf was kind enough to send me an interactive map of Waverly that was much better.  Thanks for that.

Speaking of Alf, today marked 5 years of F3 for him.  Well done, my friend.  5 years of leadership in Area 51.  And, out front on the main set today.  Threw in the merkins so you could take advantage of the short arm advantage.  We got a bunch in today.

Pop Tart says you must be a swimmer to do 50 Flutters.  Some groaning with one of the plank series.  Several went to failure.  Important to push yourself to failure sometimes.  Gotta see what you can do.

Doc was right behind Alf on the main set.  Group pushed hard and finished up together.  Strong crew out there today.

Nice to meet No Regerts.  His M is opening a bakery in the same shopping center as his tattoo shop in Matthews.

Good to see Squid and Cold Cuts.  Been a while.  Strong work today.

Hung around for a while after the workout talking with Alf and OT.  Man, OT owns 5 cars.  We got into some car stories.  The Lexus he was driving has 220K miles and damn near exploded not too long ago.  His son was jumping another car and crossed the cables.  He was using the old school cables that are not connected together like the ones you buy today.  Melted a hole in the bumper cover on the Lexus.  Looks like a battle scar.

Appreciate the invite to lead at Cerberus.  Thankful to have the time to get out there as it is a bit further than I usually go.  Solid AO with plenty of options.
