    It is apparent that the New Market crew has not been to a Doozy Q in a while and probably never ventured up to the Forge for a DTH Q. Wilson and Duke had many questions about what Arm Pretzels where and when it came to Tooth Fairies close enough seemed to be the call of the day. A good time was had by all and the bakery has really ramped up their game in the cooler weather, YHC thought he might loose a couple passing by that area.

  • Is this a Sisyphus????

    Big numbers this morning or so it seemed like big numbers. 3 runners, 2 regular SOJers and 2 travelers hit the pavement at Twin Team. According to the Staff of BWES this is what transpired.

    Convergence on Monday at Hoedown

    NMS:

    Nice to see some new/old faces in the Gloom this morning. With Mr. Holland showing up YHC was willing to last minute give the Q over for a Sisyphus but the offer was turned down. The weather was perfect for an early morning beatdown, YHC remembers looking at the dashboard reading in the Hyundai as 70 and sunny but it is an old car with lots of miles so that reading may be +/- 20 degrees

  • Old people can’t remember squat

    7 young bucks and 1 senile old dude made their way to a 70 and sunny beatdown at No Toll this morning. According to the nurses at the home this is what happened.

    YHC has been waiting all day and checking in periodically to check on the BB and starting to wonder what the He!! the Q is doing not getting the BB in, who was the Q this morning? Oh yah I was the Q, D@m8 I got to get on it. Getting old sucks and YHC’s memory is fading.

  • Saturday morning Bern Fest

    FNG’s out ranked the grizzly veterans this day 4 to 2 but No Worries YHC and DTH had the skills (provided by God and F3RVA) to make this work.

    DTH, Greenbow and YHC ventured out to visit a men’s retreat in Windy Gap NC that Greenbow took YHC to 3 years ago and YHC (God willing) will never take a year off. YHC was able to bring DTH this year and it proved to be every bit as powerful as it has ever been. Thank you Jesus for bringing YHC into this awesome event and prepare the hearts of the next line of men that will be asked to go next year.

    The 4 FNG’s that we brought into the Gloom where from different areas of the country and where in their own right very fit. They probably didn’t expect the high cardio and leg work of a Doozy Q but they where more than up to the challenge of pumping out a few merkins. YHC hopes to see these fine men next year and prays that they will join the ranks of their local F3 community.

  • The Bridge Charlottesville is changing lives

    1 lone PAX (YHC) made an 1 hour 15 minute trip to Buckingham (Charlottesville Area) to make a GP appearance and just visit a new AO.

    COP: SSH’s, DQ’s, 3rd Graders (Cherry Pickers), Imperial Walkers and Merkins

    No mosey: 21’s PAX does SSH’s in cadence while Q counts to 6 and then stops. PAX is supposed to count in their head to 21 and stop. If not in sink PAX does predetermined exercise, PAX never did get in sink. Don’t remember all the exercises but there where many Burpees, Merkins and Ball Dippers

    Again No mosey: 6 minutes of Mary with WWII’s, an odd new one YHC will bring home they called plank jack but not how we do them and American Hammers

    NMS:

    WOWWWWW, what a program. You have got to go to this AO. This facility take in guys that have had addiction issues of one sort or another and for 6 months they rehab, learn new skills (HVAC, Auto mechanics, plumbing and more) then they job place them with their new skills and put them in a half way house. Once they graduate from there they have more options. Also once they are at the halfway house F3 Charlottesville has an AO for them to go to call Green Trees. God has been laying some things on YHC’s heart lately and this program just changed my direction and plans.

    YHC will be planning another trip to the Bridge in September if anyone wants their world rocked

  • F3 style disc golf

    6 LPGA want-to-be’s showed up to a Forge beatdown knowing not what was in store for them. According to the off color, color man this is what went down.

    Mosey / try to out run GP coming in hot

    COP – DQ’s, Helicopters, Weed Pickers, Russian Soldiers, Imperial Walkers

    Mosey to the back of the school at the bottom of the steps Crab Cakes and LBC’s, Box Jump to the top

    Find 12 (cheep Wal Mart) Frisbees take one and write your name on the painters tape on the bottom.

    YHC will pick an object (as the flag) for each hole. Everyone tees off at the same time (hence the names on the bottom) before you can throw your disc you have to do a burpee for the number of shot that you are on. Start with your first shot is one burpee, your second is two so on and so forth. Once you have taken your shot you run to your frisbee and do your next round of burpees before you shoot again. If you catch an opponents frisbee they have to do an extra 5 burpees as a penalty.

    In total I think we did 8 holes possibly 9 (YHC lost track) at minimum 40 burpees but I think most of us did much more than that. I know YHC had at least 2 holes that where 8 shots and twice YHC’s frisbee was caught giving him 5 extra burpees each.

    After last hole near the flag stop for a quick round of Man Killers

    NMS:

    Last Time proved to be the best hands of the PAX this morning, both of the penalty catches YHC had where caught by Last Time and one was off a quick skip that YHC was trying to get around him on.

    Frisbees where .10 each at Wal Mart and flew like you would expect a .10 frisbee to fly. They may get you banned from an actual Disc Golf coarse if you where brave enough to play with them in public. For a bunch of 30 to 50 year old goof balls they where perfect.

  • Ab-solutly fantastic!!!

    6 Abs of steel veterans showed up to No Toll to see what Jane Fonda had in store for them only to find Doozy with the Q.

YHC finally broke down and bought a shovel and used an old flag that has been waiting to see the light of day again, YHC will be adding stickers from other regions that he visits.

    Twice this week YHC has been brow beat for the decision not to get the COVID shot. It is a choice, one that may or may not kill me only God knows your time. I am very proud to say that I served time to ensure the freedom and right for me and you to make a decision on what to do or not do. If I die from COVID know that I love all the brothers in the Gloom and that I died making a choice because of the freedom that was afforded to me.

    You can pack a lot in when only 2 PAX hit the AO. YHC and Florence where able to explore a little more than we might have been able to if more PAX where present. Hopefully PAX will continue to grow for this AO in the future because it has a lot of potential.
