Buckets

The buckets of pain made a triumphant return on Friday to slow burn. Back by popular request. Three buckets were placed around the AO. Each bucket had tickets with multiple pain choices chosen at random by delighted pax. All enjoyed.

Good chatter in the cold.

Avoiding the Construction

The weather was 37 and rainy (in spite of Old Bays Steve) to start the day at Flight Plan. It was one of those days where the fartsack was extra inviting but the downpainment made was more than worth it.

We explored Baxter to avoid the construction happening on 160 which included lots of hill work. Here is the route:

Down Market Street to YMCA loop
Right on 6th Baxter
Left on Sutton
Right on Mills Lane to the dead end
Left on Gardenia
Right on Morris Hunt
Right on Downing
Left on Berkshire
Back to Richard’s Crossing
Right on Sutton
Back down Market Street

I miss Ohio?

5 were at Sole-to-Sole for a ruck through Kingsley where we found out the we are losing our Pax Battle Bot to …… Ohio…. Specifically Toledo.

This fascinating development puts him closer to his wife’s entire family, and as far as his family, not terribly ridiculous as they are spread out.

Little time was spent on what’s actually going on in Toledo these days.

We will miss our brother.
