CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A piece of advice that’s served me well for many years:   Normally you know the right thing to do, but for those times when you really don’t know the “right” thing to do, simply choose the more difficult of your options.  That will usually put you on the right path.

MOLESKIN:
Frosty we all agreed that Sadie needs a F3 nickname.

Mayberry we all admire your courage to admit to owning a smurf & unicorn trampstamp

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A Father isn’t always what you may think it is. We can show love and acceptance that can really make a difference to the people in our lives. My Father-in-Law showed me what it was like to be welcomed into a family.
MOLESKIN:
Great turnout this morning, with a visitor from Davidson (Kwame), who brought us the gift of an FNG this morning (Podium) it was a challenging workout. I thought I was going to have to turn the Q over this morning after throwing my back out in the first 10 minutes… It was great to see the PAX step up when I went down. I am always humbled when I’m around these guys. Thanks for pushing HIM’s!
