The BackBlast:
The Grill was a buzz of activity with the carnival moving into town for the Memorial Day weekend. In addition, a lot of cars were picking up goods for a fund raiser. Weekday afternoons certainly have a different vibe than early Saturday mornings. In the midst of the “crowds”, six PAX including one FNG found the shovel flag for our workout.
The disclaimer was given.
Warm-a-rama: mosey down the path across from the baseball field (did I mention, a baseball game was also in progress…)

We picked up two 8-year old boys at this point (Hez and “Red Head”) who joined us for the rest of the workout. One of them insisted on being included in the group photo.

COT: Prayers for travels of PAX returning from vacation as well as Picasso’s upcoming trip; prayers for Ditto’s granddaughter, Praise for Pocahontas’s return and continued recovery.
Our FNG was named Picasso in deference to his painting profession albeit of a commercial kind, not on a canvas. Welcome to F3 Picasso!
