Mary:

YHC decided on the way over to tennis courts that is was time for one of the newer to F3 men to lead Mary and who had not Qd at least as long as I’ve been Q at Possum Trot. Circled up and asked all guys who had been a part of F3 less than 6 months to take 3 steps forward. Out that group the ones who had been coming between 3-6 months to take a couple of more steps forward. Slots and Gutterball were standing ready to Q Mary whether they knew it or not at this point! I asked them to volunteer to lead Mary or I would call one of the two of them out to lead. Slots stepped up like a veteran and took the lead for Mary.
