MOLESKIN

1. Upon arriving in the parking lot, there was a bobcat plowing snow and scraping up ice. I thought for a moment…should I be here right now, is he going to ask me to move my car and leave?
2. Once the PAX rolled in, we outnumbered him so I knew we were good to go!
3. Tough to keep the PAX confined to the small covered (only ice free space) for 45 minutes, but we pulled it off.
4. Greek provided us with a questionable Spanish counting lesson during the Mason Twist (aka Mexican Twist)
5. Great to see #1 back in the gloom, welcome back brother!
