Warm weather was welcomed. Lights in the bus stop were welcomed. Six noble warriors got to plant a KB this week as these girl scouts were not going door-to-door like past weeks.
Great work from the PAX today. No running, but this routine does have a cardio element to it. PAX members were responsible in nursing injuries.
God is good all of the time!

SMS: On this day 7 years ago YHC showed up and received the name Bodos by one Honeydo. It was many months before the 2nd post, and it was several years after that before the VQ. Swirly demands that I subtract the first 3 years from my record, but I’m just grateful that it eventually stuck. It’s the small everyday habits that ultimately define a life, and this is a good one.
Noted that Steal the Bacon always ends up with an injury, apologies to Upchuck for the slide tackle. Ask TYA to kiss your boo boo.

NMS: Great morning with the perfect number for strong mumble chatter. Topics included a wide variety of items with Bone Thugs always willing to contribute a variety of interesting tidbits. YHC has been trying to incorporate those tires since discovering them last year, today was the day. They were a bit heavier than imagined. Good thing there was a more economical alternative tire available. Thank you to the PAX for riding along on the journey. Great work this morning gents.

Great morning men. Great to take the Q at a new AO – a VQ of sorts. The energy even woke me up 15 minutes early this morning…and that’s early.
Lots of mumble chatter and some hard work put in. All with plenty of time for coffee afterwards.
Thanks for letting me lead.
No More Gumbo For You!
One veteran brought the office key for the latest edition of The Clinic. Temps were 70 and sunny. According to the lady locked out of her hotel room, the following might have happened:
Stretch, 3/5ths of a mile run, stop, Fudd, 4.5 mile run. YHC continues to recommend bringing the office keys to The Clinic.
Number, name, YHC took himself out with a little reminder for patience and kindness.
NMS: True to form, police appeared at the La Quinta. The Clinic is never boring.
Six showed up today early morning. A day before, YHC asked if anyone wanted to Q, no one replied, so by default had to do it himself. We did our usual culdesac run with 10 Burpees and 20 Heels to Heavens on one side (six culdesacs) and 15 Hand-Release Merkins and 60 LBCs on the way back (four more). Overall distance is 3.5 miles. Finished almost on time. Pigskin did his usual walk around the School with 200 Merkings and 200 Dips. Great morning!
