Moleskine:
Great effort by all the pax today on a crisp morning at Stonecrest. Hopefully we can now all retire our toboggans for good. Personally, I’m looking forward to breaking my white “semi-pro-inspired” head band back out. We almost got bailed out on our speed bump work due to delivery truck activity but the pax were so eager we made it work. Lots of crowd pleasers. Long plank walks = bad idea. Noted. The look on Fireman Ed’s face as we approached the hill was priceless. I knew he was thinking of last week’s 35 trips up the hill – backwards – wondering what might be in store this time. In comparison five trips up and down – forwards – with a few merkins was a breeze. Welcome back to Crab Cake after a long injury layoff. Hope you’re still walking well after lunch. Welcome to Rebel Yell, Mermaid. Hope you make it back again. Special thanks to Splinter for taking us out. I agree, hearing the birds chirping is a welcome sign and one that I’m thankful for.
Announcements:
Two new 3rd F groups starting soon. One in the Southpark area and one in Ballentyne. Both will be lunch time. Look for these announcements in the weekly email or talk to Splinter, Hops or Semi-Gloss.
