This one is a bit more execused. It was a hot potato Q at Hoedown on this Monday morning. EF Hutton started things off and then YHC basically hijacked the cue after Hutton. I guess I had pent up leadership needs inside or something. Totally forgot what we did but we ended with some four corners and then box jumps without the box. We couldn’t figure out what box jumps without the box were called…but they looked pretty goofy and I probably won’t be doing them again. All told, it took about 10 minutes to post these backblasts. Not really…

Eight studs rose to the occasion for a mid-May Hoedown. HP was the order of the day. EF Hutton Q COP DORA Plankorama Marv Q Stuff on Blacktop Stuff on Handrails More stuff on Blacktop Other stuff MOLESKIN After a brief EF stint at the helm, Marv took the Q and ran with it.  Perhaps a backblast was forthcoming, but the statute of limitations ran out. YHC knows there were eight, Flo is the one in question. If your name belongs, call the hotline. ANNOUNCEMENTS Convergence Monday 5/29 7am Tredegar

It was a collaborative effort this AM in the gloom of Tuckahoe Elementary and Hoedown. An absent Q left 7 of us making it up on the fly…and making it up on the fly, we did.
