    13 grown-boys ran around at The Woodshed this morning. YHC noticed a new illuminated area nearby so we went exploring…

  • Rubba Dub Dub

    9 grown-boys showed up to The Alamo this morning. As Flyboy so eloquently stated in the group text, “Not sure where exactly I draw the line but this morning was definitely on the f*** that side of the line.” It appears that several other also found themselves on that side of the line as YHC was the only RounTrey rep.

    WARAMARA – Moseyed to the other side of the horeshoe. Gave the mission, stretched out and got into it. Side note, do you still take baths? If not, at what age did you stop? Answer in the comments please.

    The THANKG – The PAX took an XL mosey throughout the neighborhood to appreciate the lights. QTY (10) exercies at each major intersection with some sprints mixed in. We also made some strategic stops along the way to make sure that the Fart-sackers knew the WE knew where they lived.
