Casual observations:
1) In the middle of escalators, round 1, while waiting on the six to arrive, the PAX decided imitate Abraham instructing the PAX to “Don’t watch a man while he works!”. YHC was suddenly jolted by the spirit of Abraham which resulted in the utterance of these words. 20 burpees!
2) At one point the air was heavy with #TWSS references. You would have thought that Cuz was there. Turns out it was Binary channeling Cuz. I was reminded that it couldn’t be Cuz because he doesn’t have a passport to cross the river.
3) Fact: You can search all of the AO’s in our area and you will not, I repeat will not, find a smoother parking lot than the Alexander County Library. Star has you all beat on this one.

Character is important. Character counts. The example we set to others such as our spouses, children, family, friends, and those we work with, is how we will be remembered. YHC shared a couple of quotes on character for the PAX to chew on:
“God builds character in our lives by allowing us to experience situations where we are tempted to do the exact opposite of the character quality. Character development always involves a choice. When we make the right choice, our character grows more like Christ.” – Rick Warren
“A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.” ― Charles H. Spurgeon
As always it was honor to lead.
