Name and Count-o-rama

Moment of silence for the victims of 9/11 and the service personal who past in the line of duty.

YHC wanted to do something to mark the 20th anniversary of the attacks. The 456 yards bear crawl did just that. I think it will be repeated going forward.

YHC should have told stories of the people he knew lost on 9/11 but YHC feels like he honors them by remembering them in his memories.

COT, Counterama, Namerama. Ferrari offered a 3rd F opportunity to work at the Concorso Italiano car show in August to raise funds to support Jacob’s Heart Children’s Cancer Support Services. Sharkbait reminded us about the upcoming Murph Challenge and the Del Monte Beach Clean-up today. Sharkbait stated the F3 motto.

Break for coffeeteria at Starbucks where Ferrari told us more about the Concorso Italiano and Jacob’s Heart.

Old Rock

Leave a comment

15 strong 💪 at Carmel High this morning. Gloom was nice. A little cool, over cast, perfect after the hot days that were hitting us hard during the week.

3 FNGs today including Never Mind who said he likes old rock (IE Music I grew up on.) I thought he was going to say bands from the early 60s when he said old rock. I guess time keeps on ticking into the future….
