High Wind Advisory Stand In Q

The Dog Pound

THE SCENE:

At 4:30am, the alarm sounded along with a massive amount of noise from the heavy rain and high wind.  GroupMe messages started flying around to see if the QIC (Frosty) was going to cancel the workout.  A few shameful posts later and YHC drug himself out of the house in the now misty morning.  After arriving at the AO, YHC found no one in sight and again began the troll on GroupMe.  Many were attempting to arrive only to be turned around or forced back to the fartsack due to downed trees and blocked roadways.  Three vigilant PAX included YHC were able to post.

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER

Welcome and quick disclaimer due to lost time waiting on PAX to arrive

WARM-O-RAMA:
Short warm-up included the following:

  • SSH – IC x 20
  • Cherry Pickers – IC x 10

THA-THANG:
Due to the spontaneous Q to cover for Frosty, YHC pulled out the FitDeck Exercise Playing Cards.  Pulling one at a time, the PAX made it through around 30 cards before having to call it quits for the morning.  There was no shortage of soaking up the surrounding water, stretching out on all four sides getting better together.  A good amount of mumble chatter occurred along with the surrounding sounds of falling branches and trees.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
3 PAX including YHC (I-Beam), WaxJob and Bueller

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Listened to a good audiobook this week by Billy Crystal and Kevin Cline called “Have a Nice Day”.  The story told of a the final day of a man, actually the POTUS, who was contacted by the Grimm Reaper early one morning.  After some convincing, he was allowed to finish out the day to address some family matters that were incomplete.  The moral of the story was “live every day as if it were your last.”
