When we’re young, our heroes wear capes. As we age, our new heroes wear flaws, scars, and wisdom. They quietly show up, do the work, and expect no applause. Growing up isn’t about losing heroes, it’s about finding real ones.
You men are my heroes. You each have special gifts that I admire. You may not see it, but we do. Spending time in the Gloom with you men makes me better. Thank you.

None of us made it to the Burpees, but all of us questioned why we were doing this to ourselves. The run had about 100 feet of elevation gain, which none appreciated. Nevertheless, we had good mumblechatter and welcomed our newest FNG, “Chester Drawers.” Thanks for the opportunity, Masterpiece.
Aye!
