MOLESKIN:
– Strange things are afoot at the speedway. Handy Manny was on time (or very close to it) and Gulfstream rolled in on Handy time. At least he was around 45mins earlier than Thursday. He is taking ‘do the harder thing’ to heart, but caught up with us a mile or so in.. YHC decided to let the PAX get some mileage in today, but did switch it up a bit and do the big loop in reverse, which drew in one of our extended family, good to see you again Deadhead. I know he was encouraged when Hacksaw said we would get him back to the Cockpit…. We got to taste what going up the hill by 29 was like, not sure the verdict on which hill is better though.. Normal Mumblechatter including; more conversations about Hacksaw’s gambling stye, hoping that we all have the ability to have ‘meeting’s’ in Vegas when we are in our mid 70’s, the Pope, and Handy Manny’s latest adventures on holiday. Rounded off the morning with a nice Coffeeteria at the end thanks to heatstroke. Speaking of heatstroke, if you weren’t aware, this week is his 50th birthday. Fortunately, you have a few opportunities to celebrate with him over the week. In honor of his b-day, the Braves are in a 4 game winning streak, so there’s that.
– Always an Honor!
