Across the Bridge Substi-q
I haven’t q’d in Hickory in almost 2, shoot make that three years. So when Patti Mayo said he needed someone to substitute for him today at howitzer, I figured what the heck. Here’s how it went down… Warmup. The usual side straddle hops, arm circles, imperial storm troopers, etc. Then we moseyed […]
Keep Flexing My Friends
What a beautiful morning to start this Father’s Day weekend!

Pax vowed to Endeavor to Persevere
Adapt and overcome. Endeavor to persevere.

Wooden Workout at the Mount
We only broke one roped log at my last Q at the Mount, so I brought the 11 remaining roped logs for another round, parked my loaded truck next to the Walgreen’s at the end of a dead-end road and moseyed to the flag. 11 PAX show up: that’ll be a great match. YHC starts […]

Ghost Flag moves on

Thanks to the head man from Howitzer with good salad, AKA Pantene, it’s now located on the other side of the river. After some confusion, mumblings, grumblings, and an overly complicated explanation of why said […]
