The Quest for Halloween Decorations

AO: shamruck
Q: Mermaid
PAX: Eliza, Toretto, Mailbox, Anchorman, Ribbed, Dumpster Dive, Crawlspace, Mermaid
FNGs: None
COUNT: 8
We moved fast, and covered a lot of ground today. We were seeking Halloween Decorations with two specific stops in mind. We were 4 minutes late as a result, and did the COT on the fly during the last half mile.

COT Topic was about my daughter and critical thinking, as she was uncomfortable with a question in school. The paraphrase was something like why do we teach children religion, and the answer was that they are impressionable. She said that made her uncomfortable and we were able to have a great conversation about discernment, wisdom, truth, and religion.

Also 3 runners, Toretto, Mailbox, & Anchorman. 2 Dogs joined the ruckers, and I am sorry for the blurry pic.

COT: Everyone is going to have super tough times in their lives at some point due to deaths of loved ones, illness, or other catastrophe. Sometimes it’s all we can do just to get up and put one foot in front of the other. Just keep doing that and eventually things will get better. Just try to hold on to hope.
