Flag Day. Shovel Flag Day?



Flag Day. Shovel Flag Day?

Ye Olde Moleskinnythang:

No Shovel Flag….on Flag Day. Oh the humanity! Actually, Margo, the distinguished well-bearded co-Q at Centurion and protector of the shovel flag is off glamping somewhere in the not so rugged woods.

The pax mustered, and YHC had primarily partner work on the Weinke, so the odd number was problematic. Kept thinking Scabby or Brilleaux might show…alas.

Lots of inquisitiveness before the downpainment. Thunder Road asked if we were going off campus. Lorax noted YHC did not have gloves on. I did say we would stay on campus and the mileage would be low (1.80 miles, by the way) as YHC uncharacteristically posted at Ghost Runner last night. Anyhoo, the pax were poorly disclaimed and we launched…..but not before Prohibition asked if YHC’s arm circles were the first exercise of COP…so YHC called arm circles….we would finish with a strange, seldom-called arm exercise…more on that later.

We partnered up after COP. 13 hand-slap merkins, partners run opposite directions around the gridiron. 13 decline partner merkins. Flapjack. Do this 3 times.

Over to Tartarus for some partner Mary. Up to the top of the monstrous cheese-grater. 13 Old-school setups while P2 planks with hands on P1’s feet. Flapjack. Partners run separate stairwells down. Prairie Fire Mary at bottom. Flapjack.

Bout Time was wary of something falling from Lorax’ shorts during the Prairie Fire. If you were there, you know the story involving TR that gave good cause for Bout Time’s concern.

Met the 21 year-old Ranger for the first time. He put in some hard work, and told us in no uncertain terms that he was not a father. Good to know, but Lord-willing you will have that joy one day, young man.

Now over to the benches near the main entrance to CCHS….two or three of which are sorely in need of some Boy Scout’s attention. #rememberthedisclaimer

Double-squat jump up’s x 13. One-legged squat x 13R & 13L. One more set of Double-squat jump up’s x 13.

Mosey to launch lot for 8.24 minutes of Mary including slow flutter, Rosalita, perfect form LBC’s, Shoulder Tap plank work….and for the grand finale – Moroccan Night Clubs x 45….Mermaid complained we didn’t go to 50…but 50’s arbitrary anyway and 45 is YHC’s 2nd favorite number. 13 is my favorite, of course.

That’s it and that’s all.

Only announcement is that Mermaid is drinking beer and running a trail race at the Whitewater center tomorrow morning at 9:30’ish. More power to you brother. Happy Father’s Day….”honey, do you mind driving?!”

Someother stuff happened along the way, but I can’t really remember other than our lone “Respect” was putting in solid work. Methinking the Morrocan’s were inducing some pain, my friend.

Oh yeah…one more thing – Prohibition lacked the requisite rhythm to perform the Moroccan Night Club…keep practicing.

Thanks to Lorax for taking us out.

“Direct your children onto the right path,
    and when they are older, they will not leave it.” Proverbs 22:6

Fathers should be their children’s primary teachers/instructors in wisdom and life lessons. Don’t abdicate that to anyone else including mom, church, school, government, etc.
