This was a real gasser and shoulder shredder today the bricks got heavy fast and Q was kinda surprised that no bricks were thrown at his head although by the end no one had enough left in their arms to throw a brick too far so I guess I was probably safe. Great effort by all The Gauntlet was no joke I think everyone made it at least 3/4 of the way thru with Rooster leading the way
Prayers lifting up all those in Texas affected by the recent senseless act of violence, Hokie Pokie and his family and Smith and Wesson and his family.
As always it is an honor to lead Anvil
