We were able to beat the rain for our Saturday morning workout. 7 PAX initially posted with Potsie arriving late and having to run to catch up with us for warm-a-rama. He still beat Teardrop and The Rock (who just celebrated his 15th birthday!) who pulled in and parked at the far end of the parking area where we were in the midst of warm-a-rama. It was great to have Slim Shady back with us!

Mosey to the playground; some impertinent PAX chided me for taking the direct route; I fired back that if they wanted to do things differently they could Q next week!

Pork Chop related that he was engaging some men in an EH for F3 in his small group and noticed that his arms were getting pretty buff as a result of F3 (he said his M concurred and we said he was beginning to get into to much information…); however kudos to Pork Chop for articulating the vision and benefits of F3!
