The Planets Aligned

DATE: 2023-02-23 AO: Shield Q: Rousey PAX: Pilgrim, tagalong, Spitball, Bombay, Cooter2 FNGs: None COUNT: 6 WARMUP: No warm up. Rousey came in hot and moseyed the pax to QHMS where a surprise was awaiting. THE THANG: Rousey stashed a crate of goodies behind the trailer at QHMS. This, he claimed, was the reason for his tardiness. Inside the crate were 19 tangled jump ropes (think back to middle school gym class with the jump ropes made out of those plastic macaroni pieces), 4 orange cones and a 45 pound sand bag for good measure. Mosey to the track where the Pax were told to jump rope for 1 minute (maybe longer) and the Pax that messed up the most had to run a lap with the sandbag. Ouch! The cones were placed at each turn where the pax completed various exercises. Round and around we went. Thankfully the Pax took turns carrying the sand bag. Afterwards the Pax were spent and Rousey threatened next time to jump rope for 2 minutes. Mumble chatter ensued.
Even though the Pax couldn’t see it through the dense cloud cover, an astronomical phenomenon had occurred this morning at Shield. A crescent 🌙 moon was flanked by Jupiter and Venus. If you look close enough you can see the moons orbiting around Jupiter. You don’t see that everyday. And the Pax didn’t see it this morning. But knew it was there.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Blood Drive 3/3 followed by Beer Run 3/4. Makes perfect sense. COT: Tagalong took us out in prayer. Grateful indeed for another morning in the Gloom.
