Happy National Frequent Flyer Day! (in honor of Lindbergh)
All Highlands BackblastsMay 1st, 2018
The weather was perfect this morning to be outside and get after it. The sign-up genius teased headlamps, blocks and/or hills. 2 out of 3 were delivered as 18 of Highland’s baddest got better. Disclaimer provided, yes we will be on uneven terrain, clarified the use of the term volition (spelling = v-o-l-i-t-i-o-n, sound it out = vōˈliSH(ə)n, definition = the faculty or power of using one’s will), and we were off.

Moleskin:
- What happened that a “portable” is now called a “learning cottage”?
- @Barrister’s counting was a little suspect this morning. Perhaps he can visit one of the learning cottages for some remedial math.
- Where was @Disaster today? He especially likes the cinder blocks.
- Welcome @Lindbergh!
- Who knew Frequent Flyer Day is celebrated annually on May 1? Not it.
- Did you also know it’s National Purebred Dog Day, National Phone in Sick Day, National Save the Rhino Day? Yeah – neither did I.
- There is an open spot on the Time Laps relay team for anybody interested. If not, come out anyway to enjoy a predicted beautiful May Fri/Sat at the Whitewater Center.

Aye!
@Kleanup the counting was not suspect but the form may have been.
I had an early doctors appointment so I fartsacked today. Seeing @kleanup’s name on the Sign Up Genius made my decision that much easier. I missed the fellowship but definitely didnt miss the cinder blocks. See you guys on Thursday.
well, that is bullshit, you need to ask next time if that is all you can come up 🙂
@Disaster – please submit a doctors note with your 0530 appointment time clearly indicated for @Gump’s approval.
And @Disaster you have the Q on the 6 year anniversary of Highlands. Don’t screw it up! #NotAConvergence #TooOldForAParty
I can switch if you want somebody more responsible in charge. I promise not to talk about my balls in the backblast.
I’m not sure which way to take that, but I’m guessing I need to amp up the difficulty. Noted!
great job KleanUp! thanks for leading it was actually enjoyable
Aye!
