Oh the places we will go!

Date: 2025-10-07 AO: falcon-crest Q: Hops PAX: Emoji, Fotomat, puddin_pop, Snuka, Slingshot, IHOP, high_tide, Erin Brokavich FNGs: None COUNT: 9 Emoji & Fotomat came in late, we kindly waited (shouldn’t have but we did) and then launched….. and then the Q started struggling. Need to make this F3 thing more of a habit! Yikes. Anyhoo, we went 2.25 according to someone’s Strava-compatible device. Stopped periodically for some Mary and towards the end for some reformed rock work at Hope church. Puddin’ was reminiscing about Oktoberfest’s of yesteryear. IHOP is heading to the Cotswolds (not Cotswold), Snuka will be heading back to Guatemala in late spring/early summer, Slingshot’s headed to Charlottesville, Emoji’s headed to California, Puddin to Atlanta…assume High Tide (ran in, by the way – T-claps), Fotomat and Erin are heading to work in/around the Queen City. I’m going somewhere…any ideas? Mumblechatter was good, not great; but the owl chatter during COP was outstanding. Announcements: much blood was letted at last Friday’s drive – T-claps to MARTA, F3 Vampire and all who gave. Christmas party 2 months from today (12/7) at Hops’ home. Hoover is dressing as the abominable snowman and Gloss as Santa. We all know who the elves are. Closed COT with a prayer that we would all have eyes and ears for the needs of others. And then meet those needs. There’s an old phrase for this: “Love your neighbor”. And the Greek word for love in this is an action verb, not a feeling. Have a good week, men.
