It is good the Grill is portable. Our AO has been officially closed for over a month but the PAX are alive and well. At last week’s virtual coffeeteria, the guys decided it was time to get back in the gloom together. Wichita graciously offered his front yard to meet. He even sweetened the deal when his M offered to provide breakfast! One thing the men of the Grill are known for is coffeeteria! A Grill workout is just not complete without it. It is so important, in fact, that some have even been known to skip the workout and just come to coffeeteria. She did not disappoint with two different breakfast casseroles to choose from along with fresh coffee.
5 PAX posted along with Wichita’s two high-energy 2.0’s who were named Mighty Mouse and Flash. They had no problem keeping up with the rest of the PAX along with suggesting alternate exercises.

Workout was immediately followed by coffeeteria while we sat in our lawn chairs on the driveway while maintaining social distancing….except for Flash and Mighty Mouse who couldn’t quite maintain the recommended 6-foot distance. They kept us busy throwing a football for them to catch. These two are born athletes.
Good time with great folks. Thanks again to Wichita and his M for being such gracious hosts.
