Naked Moleskin:
–NO WHIPLASH NEXT SATURDAY. Safe travels to the Leatherneck participants.
-There were squeaky shoes among the bunch, reminded PAX of the Nike basketball commercial with Jason “White Chocolate” Williams in the ’90s. Museum of Art offers a great sunrise view, we were treated to a special red dawn during the CDD set of 11s. Many more ahead at The Judge & Whiplash as daylight moves through the year, come check it out.
-Master Builder took us out in prayer, well done. Good seeing him try out some various workout options. Sunshine rode in just in time to park and lock.
-T-claps to Countrywide & Duff for their work with the Healing Place, they had 26 FNGs yesterday afternoon at The Arena. Turns out a time change was the right call for the residents, hate that I wasn’t there as I’m sure those who were will never forget it. Awesome.
-T-claps to White Shoe, Chong Li, MacGruber & Costco for making the trip to help get F3 Richmond off the ground. Safe travels home guys.
-Prayers for the safe arrival of Sampler & MSampler’s first born as they went to the hospital last night. Yo-Yo is going to be an uncle, now he can feel old for a change. Prayers for the Orwell family as his father appears to be close to entering eternal life, blessings for a peaceful entry.
-Only a couple of posts in Raleigh this week which felt weird but in ways is needed to maintain good health too. 2.5 years of 4-6 posts a week takes a toll which isn’t surprising but it is a reminder that we want to take care of ourselves so we can be in gloom for years to come.
