Grit and determination were the words of the day. Extra Kudos to the pre-run Studs(3 miles) and then the Iron, way to go above and beyond! Ripken and Minion represented the Young HIM’s well today, strong work! The Respects respected out and made it look easy, I thought it was not easy! Light on the conversations, as strength training was the word of the day.

bowling on March 26, check out Slack for plenty of areas to get involved.
Prayers continuing for Sandbad, Banjo boy, Wexler’s co-worker friends, The Count, My BIL with covid, all affected by Covid.

Coffeeteria was great, talk ranged from Smokey trip to St Thomas, going to Iceland in July, Norway on the horizon, and get out there and live, good words to live by. Gamma’s sons natural athletic abilities, and if it did/did not come from him? Keep pushing Minion! Deadhead brought great insights, Oz and I talking appliances,and Minnow bringing it as always!
