Alf was quick to say the crunch parking lot was too far away to make horsey and he was right, but that didn’t stop the pax from pushing hard in that direction for a solid 30 before sauntering back. PSA, McCalpine Creek Greenway is still very muddy, mind your
ANNOUNCEMENTS: blood drive Friday, see Marta COT: after some reflection on the dire plight of the North Carolina mountains, YHC took us out.
