Fun with buckets

Everyone loved my Q this past Friday. We had 3 buckets placed around the parking lot with various exercises to pick from each bucket. Many of you have struggled through it before. If you haven’t it truly is one of the more inventive and talked about workouts in the Fort. Just ask me about it next time. Really.

Somehow Anchorman was the hero as he managed to pick the one ticket that had only 2 burpees. Winner.

We had a great COT, with Spectre bringing his heart after the very long few weeks that he and his family have been through. If you’ve given them a thought or a prayer recently he is grateful.

Boogie Down can use some prayers dealing with some “Senioritis” (as we have been there) and props to Double D for this weekend’s wedding festivities. Sprocket’s excited about a 2.0 baptism and I’m traveling this weekend for the death of my stepfather. I’m sure there were others I’m missing. Safe travels for Peach Stand.
