False alarm. Just some of the Pax knocking out a little broga.  Began to discreetly unload the surprise cinderblocks and get greeted by a down range Pax member from Florida aka “Papa Smurf.” He apparently was a second cousin of someone…

According to the numerous travelers traveling River Road at ludacris speed, this is what supposedly occurred. Upon the timely arrival of Handshake, off we go with a short mosey to Henricos’ smallest park. Introductions, disclaimers, warmups of various activities. Variety of mumble chatter ensued with YHC losing track of cadence for a portion. All good and warm, lets mosey down River.
