MOLESKINE:
Five PAX was an impressive showing given the weather, and given that your Q teased this one on slack with descriptors such as “brutal”, “El Dorado”, and “Frodo”. It wasn’t quite the same without Stairway to Heaven playing its role but still a perfect format to go You versus You and come out the victor. Think everyone finished thru Round 6, Kojak got thru Round 8. Very challenging, but an effective way to beat the cold.
Kojak is on deck to Q the Ridge tomorrow, so let’s keep the week going strong with a good turnout.
