    YHC has had a kinda crazy F3 week. Couldn’t find the PAX on Tuesday. Made a semi hard commit to do different runs on Thursday and showed up for neither one. Had to make up for it today! Felt old when Mr Holland said he had no idea who Bobby Hurley was… Good to see Clint back out this morning! HAGW!
